[Xen-devel] [MULTIBOOT2 DOC PATCH v3 01/13] multiboot2: Replace u_phys with u32



u_phys is used just in two places and sometimes it may confuse reader.
Additionally, GRUB multiboot2 implementation does not use u_phys anywhere.
So, replace it with basic well defined and used in implementation u32 type.
