This looks much nicer than the previous method. A few comments.

I would round cmdline_size up to the nearest 8, to align the modlist.

sizeof(*modlist) * nr_entries.
This currently works because there is only ever one extra blob, but will
be wrong in the future when we want to pass other blobs. (I have some
plans to fix the current requirements to build seabios into hvmloader,
and make it possible to pass things like NVRAM blobs.)

I would suggest:
size_t start_info_size = sizeof(*start_info);
if ( dom->cmdline )
start_info_size += ROUNDUP(strlen(dom->cmdline) + 1, 8);
if ( dom->ramdisk_blob )
start_info_size += sizeof(*modlist); /* Only one module at the
moment. */
As a clearer way of expressing the logic.

As the layout starts to get more complicated, this style of calculation
would be cleaner as
(seg.pfn << PAGE_SHIFT) + (cmdline - start_info);

As we are planning to rename HVMlite to PVH, I would avoid the use of
HVMlite in committed code.
Also as this is HVM specific, might it be better in public/hvm? I guess
that depends on whether ARM is likely to use it.
