Bummer. I was hoping this function could always return a sane value for dom0 max
memory. But I'm not really sure what that would be if libxl_get_physinfo failed.
Yeah, We probably have some serious concerns if this fails. And given that
libxlAddDom0 happens early while bootstrapping the libxl module, it might be
good to warn the user (following similar pattern throughout the rest of the code):
virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, "%s",
_("libxl_get_physinfo_info failed"));
or perhaps simply VIR_WARN?

ATM, libxlDriverGetDom0MaxmemConf returns an unsigned long long. I could change
the signature to
int
libxlDriverGetDom0MaxmemConf(libxlDriverConfigPtr cfg,
unsigned long long *maxmem)
but again I'm not really sure what to do with maxmem in case of failure. Perhaps
just set it to current_memkb?
Yeap, that's what I was thinking too.
