I am totally newbie with linux and Xen, but i think You could rebuild
Dom0 or Xen or both, but first try to see what You get from this and compare
to David's Gis output. I have for all "=y"

grep -i xen /boot/config

Solved it. Turns out you can't find the memory without first setting up the
kernel commands to hide the device.

dmesg | grep 01:00.0 | grep "pci.*mem"
pci 0000:01:00.0: BAR 0: assigned [mem 0xcc000000-0xccffffff]
pci 0000:01:00.0: BAR 1: assigned [mem 0xb0000000-0xbfffffff 64bit pref]
pci 0000:01:00.0: BAR 3: assigned [mem 0xca000000-0xcbffffff 64bit]
pci 0000:01:00.0: BAR 6: assigned [mem 0xcd000000-0xcd01ffff pref]
