xen: do not release any memory under 1M in domain 0
We already deliberately setup a 1-1 P2M for the region up to 1M in order to allow code which assumes this region is already mapped to work without having to convert everything to ioremap. Domain 0 should not return any apparently unused memory regions (reserved or otherwise) in this region to Xen since the e820 may not accurately reflect what the BIOS has stashed in this region.
