Instead of having max_pfn as a local variable of xen_memory_setup(),
make it a static variable in setup.c instead. This avoids having to
pass it to subfunctions, which will be needed in more cases in future.

Rename it to ini_nr_pages, as the value denotes the currently usable
number of memory pages as passed from the hypervisor at boot time.

I wonder though why ...

@@ -712,9 +713,9 @@ char * __init xen_memory_setup(void)
        int op;
xen_parse_512gb();
-       max_pfn = xen_get_pages_limit();
-       max_pfn = min(max_pfn, xen_start_info->nr_pages);

+       ini_nr_pages = xen_get_pages_limit();
+       ini_nr_pages = min(ini_nr_pages, xen_start_info->nr_pages);

... this can't be just

        ini_nr_pages = min(xen_get_pages_limit(), xen_start_info->nr_pages);

I just did a mechanical change for all uses of max_pfn.

I agree that your suggestion is an improvement, so I'll modify the
code.
