Moving XEN_512GB allows it to nest under XEN_PV. That also allows
XEN_PVH to nest under XEN as a sibling to XEN_PV and XEN_PVHVM giving:

[*] Xen guest support
[*] Xen PV guest support
[*] Limit Xen pv-domain memory to 512GB
[*] Xen PV Dom0 support

This has currently a wrong text/semantics:

It should be split to CONFIG_XEN_DOM0 and CONFIG_XEN_PV_DOM0.

Otherwise the backends won't be enabled per default for a PVH-only
config meant to be Dom0-capable.

You don't have to do that in your patches if you don't want to, but
I wanted to mention it with you touching this area of Kconfig.

[*] Xen PVHVM guest support
[*] Xen PVH guest support
