xen, pvh: fix unbootable VMs (PVH + KASAN - AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT)

Browse Source 
Uninstrument arch/x86/platform/pvh/enlighten.c: KASAN has not been setup
_this_ early in the boot process.

Steps to reproduce:

	make allnoconfig
	make sure CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT is disabled
		AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT independently uninstruments lib/string.o
		so PVH boot code calls into uninstrumented memset() and
		memcmp() which can make the bug disappear depending on
		the compiler.
	enable CONFIG_PVH
	enable CONFIG_KASAN
	enable serial console
		this is fun exercise if you never done it from nothing :^)

	make

	qemu-system-x86_64	\
		-enable-kvm	\
		-cpu host	\
		-smp cpus=1	\
		-m 4096		\
		-serial stdio	\
		-kernel vmlinux \
		-append 'console=ttyS0 ignore_loglevel'

Messages on serial console will easily tell OK kernel from unbootable
kernel. In bad case qemu hangs in an infinite loop stroboscoping
"SeaBIOS" message.
