[PATCH v3 3/4] xen/arm: Reserve domid 0 for Dom0

[Luca Fancellu <luca.fancellu@xxxxxxx>]

This patch adds a comment in create_domUs() right before
domain_create() to explain the importance of the pre-increment
operator on the variable max_init_domid, to ensure that the
domid 0 is allocated only during start_xen() function by the
create_dom0() and not on any other possible code path to the
domain_create() function.
