When booting as a Xen PV dom0 the memory layout of the dom0 is modified to match that of the host, as this requires less changes in the kernel for supporting Xen. There are some cases, though, which are problematic, as it is the Xen hypervisor selecting the kernel's load address plus some other data, which might conflict with the host's memory map. These conflicts are detected at boot time and result in a boot error. In order to support handling at least some of these conflicts in future, introduce a generic helper function which will later gain the ability to adapt the memory layout when possible. Add the missing check for the xen_start_info area. Note that possible p2m map and initrd memory conflicts are handled already by copying the data to memory areas not conflicting with the memory map. The initial stack allocated by Xen doesn't need to be checked, as early boot code is switching to the statically allocated initial kernel stack. Initial page tables and the kernel itself will be handled later.
