The environment variable XENPAGING_POLICY_MRU_SIZE will change the
mru_size in the policy at runtime.
Specifying the mru_size at runtime allows the admin to keep more pages in
memory so guests can make more progress. Its also good for development to
reduce the value to put more pressure on the paging related code paths.

Note: some work is still required to actually get the value into the
environment of the process. Maybe it will become an config option
at some point.
