x86/iommu: account for necessary allocations when calculating Dom0's initial allocation size

As of c/s 21812:e382656e4dcc, IOMMU related allocations for Dom0
happen only after it got all of its memory allocated, and hence the
reserve (mainly for setting up its swiotlb) may get exhausted without
accounting for the necessary allocations up front.

While not precise, the estimate has been found to be within a couple
of pages for the systems it got tested on.

For the calculation to be reasonably correct, this depends on the
patch titled "x86/iommu: don't map RAM holes above 4G" sent out
yesterday.

x86/iommu: don't map RAM holes above 4G

Matching the comment in iommu_set_dom0_mapping(), map only actual RAM

that comment is actually correct (which is why I'm sending this as
RFC), but it is certain that on systems with sparse physical memory

for setting up IOMMU page tables that will never be used.

The main question is what happens for MMIO ranges living above 4G. Of
course, the same issue would currently exist for any such ranges
sitting beyon the end of RAM.

tools/hotplug/Linux: Ensure tap devices receive a dummy MAC address.

If a tap device is not given an explicit MAC address it will generate
one randomly.

The behaviour of the Linux bridge is to pickup the lowest MAC address
of any port for use in for ARP, STP etc. If the tap device's randomly
generated MAC address happens to be the lowest then this can cause all
manner of strange networking glitches in both domain 0 and guests when
the bridge suddenly takes over from the previously used MAC address.

We choose FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF as it the numerically largest
non-broadcast address. This ensures that the physical NIC device's
port will have the lowest MAC address and therefore be the one picked
up by the bridge.

vif devices already have a MAC address of FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF set by
netback already but there is no harm in forcing it a second time in
the hotplug script.

tap devices are added by the "add" event and therefore we should call
setup_bridge_port then as well as for "online" which is caused by vif
devices.

ocaml: install built modules

Previously the install target was having no effect because it ended up
calling the default target in the subdir Makefile instead of the
install target.

Resolve this by tying the tools/ocaml Makefiles into the generic
handling done by tools/Rules.mk.

Other changes arising in one way or another from this:
- Add libs/xl/META.in
- Update .hgignore for META files
- Create leading directories
- Remove existing module before installation in install targer
  (worksaround what appears to be a quirk of "ocamlfind install")
- Use the globally defined $(DESTDIR)
- Move "ocamlfind printfconf destdir" to a common variable,
  repurposing exising unused OCAMLDESTDIR, incorporating $(DESTDIR) at
  the same time.
- Drop a few unused variabe definitions (mainly to avoid deciding if
  $(DESTDIR) made sense for them or not.
- Pass -destdir to ocamlfind in uninstall target for symmetry with
  install target.

qemu-xen: build adjustments to support out-of-tree builds

QEMU by itself can be built outside of its source directory. With the
qemu repository being separate from the hypervisor/tools one it seems
to make sense to make use of this feature, but doing so requires a
couple of adjustments to the Xen changes to it. Basically, if
CONFIG_QEMU is found to indicate an existing directory, this directory
will be used rather than cloning the git repo into the build tree.
