This commit checks "xen,static-mem" device tree property in /domUx node,
to determine whether domain is on Static Allocation, when constructing
domain during boot-up.
Right now, the implementation of allocate_static_memory is missing, and
will be introduced later. It just BUG() out at the moment.

I think the code is small enough to fold it in patch #10. In fact...

You don't need those information outside of allocate_static_memory(). So
I think it would be best to move the code in that function.

We don't split comment over multi-line (even they are more than 80
characters). This is to help grep message in the code.
Although for this one I would replaced "Error building Domu:" with
simply with the domain ID (you can use %pd and 'd'). The caller will
then print there was an error during building.

My remark applies here as well.

Did we validate the DT before hand? If not, then I think

With my suggestion above, the check can be replaced with:

Yeah... I think I did the check in first parse. It's redundant.
