Hi,

This patch makes the vmcore utilities (ex. crash, makedumpfile) be
able to get the relocation address of the xen hypervisor from a vmcore. 
It is necessary for the utilities to find the data of the hypervisor 
structures.

Note that this patch does not raise any comptibility issue for the
utilities (which I know) nor the other components of xen.
