The error message accidentally printed the bytes value as if it were kB.

Furthermore, both b_info.shadow_memkb and shadow_mem are uint64_t, meaning
there is a risk of overflow if the user specified a stupidly large value in
the vm.cfg file.  Check and reject such a condition.

Fixes: 7c3bbd940dd8 ("xen/arm, libxl: Revert XEN_DOMCTL_shadow_op; use p2m mempool hypercalls")

v2:
 * Retain PRIu64
 * Check for overflow

For 4.17.  This is a low risk change, removes one overflow case, and makes an
error message accurate.
