Laura Abbott eb0b4aa89c x86/xen: Remove use of VLAs
There's an ongoing effort to remove VLAs[1] from the kernel to eventually
turn on -Wvla. It turns out, the few VLAs in use in Xen produce only a
single entry array that is always bounded by GDT_SIZE. Clean up the code to
get rid of the VLA and the loop.
