    xen-hvm: increase maxmem before calling xc_domain_populate_physmap
    
    Increase maxmem before calling xc_domain_populate_physmap_exact to
    avoid the risk of running out of guest memory. This way we can also
    avoid complex memory calculations in libxl at domain construction
    time.
    
    This patch fixes an abort() when assigning more than 4 NICs to a VM.
