xen/x86: adjust data placement
Both xen_pvh and xen_start_flags get written just once early during init. Using the respective annotation then allows the open-coded placing in .data to go away. Additionally the former, like the latter, wants exporting, or else xen_pvh_domain() can't be used from modules.
