I'm not exactly sure if this is what you wanted or not, but it's
the minimum patch that resolves the issue on my system and it
should be the correct logic path.

Replace the hard coded values in the dom0_vcpus_pinned case with
with the correct logic to get Xen to do the right thing.

I'm happy to add a platform call if that's what you wanted instead.
