[Xen-devel] [PATCH] Correct fseg allocation for SMBIOS tables.

[Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Anthony Perard noticed that grub was unhappy because it sees no low memory and
that his e820 table was missing the first entry. He then pointed out this
rather glaring error in the allocation of space for the SMBIOS tables.

I've no idea why I didn't see this failure.
