Subject: [PATCH v8 16/17] arm,arm64: do not always merge biovec if we are running on Xen

This is similar to what it is done on X86: biovecs are prevented from merging
otherwise every dma requests would be forced to bounce on the swiotlb buffer.

Signed-off-by: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@...citrix.com>


Changes in v7:
- remove the extra autotranslate check in biomerge.c.
