Subject: [PATCH v4] x86/xen: Use __pa_symbol instead of __pa on C visible
 symbols

This change updates a few of the functions to use __pa_symbol when
translating C visible symbols instead of __pa.  By using __pa_symbol we are
able to drop a few extra lines of code as don't have to test to see if the
virtual pointer is a part of the kernel text or just standard virtual memory.

v4:  I have spun this patch off as a separate patch for v4 due to the fact that
     this patch doesn't apply cleanly to Linus's tree.  As such I am
     submitting it based off of the linux-next tree to be accepted in the Xen
     tree since this patch can actually exist on its own without the need
     for the other patches in the original __phys_addr performance series.
