Patch to fix xen-tools-4.6.1.ebuild

I discovered this on a hardened 64-bit system, but it affect all profiles because it's a bug in the ebuild.  At some point, the following line:

mv ../ovmf-${OVMF_PV} tools/firmware/ovmf-dir-remote || die

got moved out of the conditional section in src_prepare that was preventing it from being executed when USE='-ovmf'.  This causes the ebuild to fail during src_prepare because ../ovmf-${OVMF_PV} doesn't exist if USE='-ovmf'

I've attached a patch that reverts this change and makes the build work again.
