It used to be that Linux enabled swiotlb-xen when running a dom0 on ARM.
Since f5079a9a2a "xen/arm: introduce XENFEAT_direct_mapped and
XENFEAT_not_direct_mapped", Linux detects whether to enable or disable
swiotlb-xen based on the new feature flags: XENFEAT_direct_mapped and
XENFEAT_not_direct_mapped.
However, there is still a leftover xen_initial_domain() check in
xen_create_contiguous_region. Remove the check as
xen_create_contiguous_region is only called by swiotlb-xen during
initialization. If xen_create_contiguous_region is called, we know Linux
is running 1:1 mapped so there is no need for additional checks.
Also update the in-code comment.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
