"Unknown interrupt" on 3.0.2-2 x86_64

[Todd Clayton <tclayton@sun.com>]

Currently dom0 images larger than a few tens of megabytes fail to
boot and wedge xen early with "Unknown interrupt" on the xen console.
Below is the e-mail exchange I had with Keir along with a patch.

Increase size of level-2 initial PDE identity map from first 64MB of
physical RAM to first 1GB of physical RAM. This allows x86_64 xen to boot
larger dom0 images. Without this changes large dom0 images fail to
boot with "Unknown interrupt" on xen console and wedge.
