Since commit 1aac966e24e9 "xen: support RAM at addresses 0 and 4096",
bits_to_zone() will never return 0 and it is expected that we have
minimum 2 zones.

Therefore the check in alloc_domheap_pages() is unnecessary and can
be removed. However, for sanity, it is replaced with an ASSERT().

Also take the opportunity to switch from min_t() to min() as
bits_to_zone() cannot return a negative value. The macro is tweaked
to make it clearer.

This bug was discovered and resolved using Coverity Static Analysis
Security Testing (SAST) by Synopsys, Inc.

     Changes in v2:
         - Remove BUILD_BUG_ON()
         - Switch from min_t() to min()

Since this fulfills the dependencies put in place at the time, the

Thanks for the review. It is now committed.
