[PATCH] xen: fix sparse warning in page.h

[Juergen Gross]

The inline function mfn_to_pfn_no_overrides() uses __get_user() to
access the machine_to_phys_mapping array to avoid crashes when
using out of bounds indices e.g. for I/O addresses.

Avoid sparse warnings by attributing the accessed address with __user.
