[PATCH 1/3] arm/xen: Improve a size determination in __set_phys_to_machine_multi()

Replace the specification of a data structure by a pointer dereference
as the parameter for the operator "sizeof" to make the corresponding size
determination a bit safer according to the Linux coding style convention.
