[PATCHv3 1/9] Make max_pfn symbol optional for Xen dumps

[ptesarik@xxxxxxx (Petr Tesarik)]

After commit ec5b5835a113cf62a168d4a7354564a38de6b52c, makedumpfile fails
on Xen dumps unless the "max_pfn" symbol is known. This happens even when
the dump level is 0 and 1, where it worked previously. This is especially
bad for kernels which do not put the "max_pfn" symbol into its VMCOREINFO.

With this patch, the "max_pfn" symbol is required only if the specified
dump level needs it.

Note that we cannot call get_dom0_mapnr() from initial_xen(), because
"max_pfn" is a Linux symbol, which means that:
1. its address is determined in initial() (called after initial_xen)
2. it tries to read a Dom0 symbol, and Dom0 physical->machine mapping is
   initialized in get_machdep_info (called from initial).
