    kernel: Drop HIGHMEM64G and regenerate
    
    The upstream kernel has dropped it because real 32-bit hardware almost
    never has RAM > 4 GiB.  The users running 32-bit software on 64-bit
    hardware should really switch to MLFS now.
    
    Regenerating the XML files also makes the prompt for X2APIC consistent
    with the 6.15 kernel.
