The first free pfn available for allocation is calculated by adding the
number of page table frames to the pfn of the first page table and
then the magic number 3 to account for start info page et al.
As the start info page, xenstore page and console page are allocated
_before_ the page tables leaving room for these pages behind the page
tables makes no sense.
