    x86/dom0: placate GCC 12 compile-time errors with UBSAN and PVH_GUEST
    
    When building Xen with GCC 12 with UBSAN and PVH_GUEST both enabled the
    compiler emits the following errors:
    
    arch/x86/setup.c: In function '__start_xen':
    arch/x86/setup.c:1504:19: error: 'consider_modules' reading 40 bytes from a 
region of size 4 [-Werror=stringop-overread]
     1504 |             end = consider_modules(s, e, reloc_size + mask,
          |                   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     1505 |                                    bi->mods, bi->nr_modules, -1);
          |                                    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    arch/x86/setup.c:1504:19: note: referencing argument 4 of type 'const 
struct boot_module[0]'

      686 | static uint64_t __init consider_modules(
          |                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    arch/x86/setup.c:1535:19: error: 'consider_modules' reading 40 bytes from a

     1535 |             end = consider_modules(s, e, size, bi->mods,
          |                   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     1536 |                                    bi->nr_modules + relocated, j);
          |                                    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    arch/x86/setup.c:1535:19: note: referencing argument 4 of type 'const

    This seems to be the result of some function manipulation done by UBSAN
    triggering GCC stringops related errors.  Placate the errors by declaring
    the function parameter as `const struct *boot_module` instead of `const
    struct boot_module[]`.
    
    Note that GCC 13 seems to be fixed, and doesn't trigger the error when
    using `[]`.
