I don't know if it is possible to use ovmf_code_ia32.bin (or _x64) with
Xen. You would need to supply ovmf_vars_ia32.bin somehow, but I never
looked at doing that.
Your best bet would be to rebuild the Xen pkg and edit the PKGBUILD to
remove "--with-system-ovmf" configure option (if your compile Xen from
AUR)
OR
Recompile OVMF from https://xenbits.xen.org/git-http/ovmf.git (or the
upstream URL) with `OvmfPkg/build.sh -n $nb_of_cpu -b RELEASE` and use
the OVMF file from Build/OvmfX64/RELEASE_GCC*/FV/OVMF.fd
