I finally solved my "problem"...
I realised I only had this problem on two dom0 out of eight, so I
compared all files in /etc and then /boot, and started to panic since I
couldn't find any difference. I also compared the output of xm dmesg,
dmesg, xm info, etc... all returned basically identical information.

Finally, I compared the output of xm list, and suddenly, the light came
on :)

I had started a couple of domU's on the dom0 with the problem, hence it
had shrunk dom0 dynamically to release memory for the domU's. When I
shutdown (migrated the domU to a different dom0), the dom0 never grew
it's memory back up. I suppose there may be a manual method to tell the
dom0 to reclaim the memory, but in my case, a reboot solved the issue.

Sorry for wasting everyone's time, but hopefully this will help someone
else looking for some missing memory.

Regards,
Adam
