[PATCH 3/5] xen: allow balloon driver to use more than one memory region
From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com>

Allow the xen balloon driver to populate its list of extra pages from
more than one region of memory. This will allow platforms to provide
(for example) a region of low memory and a region of high memory.

The maximum possible number of extra regions is 128 (== E820MAX) which
is quite large so xen_extra_mem is placed in __initdata. This is safe
as both xen_memory_setup() and balloon_init() are in __init.

The balloon regions themselves are not altered (i.e., there is still
only the one region).
