Fix __XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION__ old config breakage

For old kernel configurations that lack CONFIG_XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION,
__XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION__ will currently be defined but set to nothing.

If a xen-enabled kernel is built separately from the xen-unstable dist,
the following error occurs with xen-unstable-9415:

I don't think this will work, since the interface version will be set to 0 by xen-compat.h, but the current Linux kernel patches want to build against interface version 0x00030101. Just run 'make oldconfig' to update your .config file with the correct definition of CONFIG_XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION.
