x86/32on64: properly honor add-to-physmap-batch's size

Commit 407a3c00ff ("compat/memory: fix build with old gcc") "fixed" a
build issue by switching to the use of uninitialized data. Due to
- the bounding of the uninitialized data item
- the accessed area being outside of Xen space
- arguments being properly verified by the native hypercall function
this is not a security issue.
