[PATCH 2/2] Get Dom0 max_pfn using pfn_mfn_frame_list if max_pfn unavailable

If max_pfn symbol is not exported in the Dom0 kernel's VMCOREINFO, the
maximum PFN can be determined from the size of the mapping between PFN
and MFN.

Using this approach, filtering works for Xen kernels without debuginfo
(and even without adding more lines to VMCOREINFO).
