The reference "to shadow the resident processes" is applicable to
domains (potentially) running in shadow mode only. Adjust the
calculations accordingly.

In dom0_paging_pages() also take the opportunity and stop open-coding
DIV_ROUND_UP().

RFC: I'm pretty sure I can't change a public libxl function (deprecated
     or not) like this, but I also don't know how I should go about
     doing so (short of introducing a brand new function and leaving the
     existing one broken).
