Well on the one side you should always load hyperref as late as
possible (in this case after geometry) and then it will work.
hyperref (like geometry) tries to add page size to the pdf, but as
the landscape options cames later hyperref sets a portrait format,
and in the case of xetex hyperref wins on the first page. 

On the second side if you use a package or a class which set page
sizes it is best to tell hyperref not to bother. 

\documentclass{report}
\usepackage[setpagesize=false]{hyperref}
\usepackage[landscape,margin=1in]{geometry}

\begin{document}
a\newpage b
\end{document}
