Roger Pau Monne db8c4b15de Partial revert "x86/xen: fix balloon target initialization for PVH dom0" 
[ Upstream commit 0949c646d6 ]

This partially reverts commit 87af633689 so
the current memory target for PV guests is still fetched from
start_info->nr_pages, which matches exactly what the toolstack sets the
initial memory target to.

Using get_num_physpages() is possible on PV also, but needs adjusting to
take into account the ISA hole and the PFN at 0 not considered usable
memory despite being populated, and hence would need extra adjustments.
Instead of carrying those extra adjustments switch back to the previous
code.  That leaves Linux with a difference in how current memory target is
obtained for HVM vs PV, but that's better than adding extra logic just for
PV.

However if switching to start_info->nr_pages for PV domains we need to
differentiate between released pages (freed back to the hypervisor) as
opposed to pages in the physmap which are not populated to start with.
Introduce a new xen_unpopulated_pages to account for papges that have
never been populated, and hence in the PV case don't need subtracting.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
