Both xen_pvh and xen_start_flags get written just once aeryl 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.

I have to admit that it is completely unclear to me which form of
exporting I should have used: xen_domain_type is GPL-only while
xen_start_flags is not, yet both are used in similar ways, extending to
xen_pvh.

I'd use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(xen_pvh).
