This looks like you have a buggy BIOS, it doesn't have correct DMAR RMRR table..
When RMRR address range is not in reserved memory (BIOS issue), can use
'iommu_inclusive_mapping=1' to work around it.
So try that options for xen.gz in grub config.

yes, obviously the RMRR is setting incorrectly in BIOS. The base
address shouldn't be greater than end address.
"iommu_inclusive_mapping=1" cannot help here. You should report this
issue to the vendor and ask for a correct BIOS.
