If bogous values can make it through the sanity checks in
xenfb_configure_fb() then those sanity checks must be fixed.

Adding another check somewhere else certainly doesn't make review
easier.  In contrast it makes error handling more complicated because
there are multiple places where you have to deal with errors instead of
just one functions which does all sanity checks.
