Allocating or freeing p2m pages doesn't alter the size of the mempool; only
the split between free and used pages.

Right now, the hypercalls operate on the free subset of the pool, meaning that
XEN_DOMCTL_get_paging_mempool_size varies with time as the guest shuffles its
physmap, and XEN_DOMCTL_set_paging_mempool_size ignores the used subset of the
pool and lets the guest grow unbounded.

This fixes test-pagign-mempool on ARM so that the behaviour matches x86.

This is part of XSA-409 / CVE-2022-33747.
