I ran into the following compilation warnings while compiling makedumpfile on ppc64/ppc64le platforms: -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -DVERSION='"1.6.2"' -DRELEASE_DATE='"27 Jul 2017"' -D__powerpc64le__ -DUSELZO -DUSESNAPPY print_info.o dwarf_info.o elf_info.o erase_info.o sadump_info.o cache.o arch/arm.o arch/arm64.o arch/x86.o arch/x86_64.o arch/ia64.o arch/ppc64.o arch/s390x.o arch/ppc.o arch/sparc64.o -rdynamic -o makedumpfile makedumpfile.c -lpthread -lsnappy -llzo2 -ldw -lbz2 -lebl -ldl -lelf -lz makedumpfile.c: In function ?initial_xen?: makedumpfile.c:9442:16: warning: unused variable ?size?

[-Wunused-variable] off_t offset; ^ makedumpfile.c:9440:6: warning: unused variable ?xen_info_required? [-Wunused-variable] int xen_info_required = TRUE; ^ This is caused because while we don't support Xen on powerpc, we still have the above variables declared outside the '#if defined(__powerpc64__) || defined(__powerpc32__)' check. This patch fixes the same by ensuring that these variables are only declared for archs != powerpc.
