[PATCH v2 2/4] makedumpfile/xen: Disable cyclic mode for every Xen crash dump

Disable cyclic mode for every Xen crash dump not only when -X option
is used. This way makedumpfile is much more flexible and different
modes could be used to dump whole system memory (e.g. zero pages
could be striped without requiring -X option).
