tot_memkb is unrelated to target_memkb, also somewhat unrelated to
max_memkb.

xenpaging will look at tot_memkb value (at "memory/target-tot_pages" to
be precise) and try to reach that number of domain->tot_pages. If the
tot_memkb number is larger than max_memkb nothing will happen.


Right now there is not much checking anyway, memory=1024 maxmem=1 in the
config is accepted in my testing.
