Commit 81a76e4b12961a9f54f5021809074196dfe6dbba ("libxc: rework of domain builder's page table handler") introduced a regression with checking the required memory size of the domain. The needed maximum pfn of the initial kernel mapping was added to the currently last used pfn resulting in doubling the estimated memory need. Correct the calculation of the last needed pfn to enable booting of small domains again.
