xen: ignore RW mapping of RO pages in pagetable_init
When setting up the initial pagetable, which includes mappings of all low physical memory, ignore a mapping which tries to set the RW bit on an RO pte. An RO pte indicates a page which is part of the current pagetable, and so it cannot be allowed to become RW. Once xen_pagetable_setup_done is called, set_pte reverts to its normal behaviour.
