x86: xen, i386: reserve Xen pagetables
The Xen pagetables are no longer implicitly reserved as part of the other
i386_start_kernel reservations, so make sure we explicitly reserve them.
This prevents them from being released into the general kernel free page
pool and reused.
[ Impact: fix Xen guest crash ]
