PATCH 1/1 boot with default on dom0_mem allocation failure.

Hi,

this patch makes Xen boot with the default dom0_mem value when the given value exceeds available memory, instead Xen panics and reboots.

Administrators have a chance to correct dom0_mem (and other parameters if necessary) after Xen is up with default, seeing the warning message.

Tested by booting Domain-0.
