    xen/arm64: io: Handle the abort due to access to stage1 translation table
    
    If the abort was caused due to access to stage1 translation table, Xen
    will try to set the p2m entry (assuming that the Stage 1 translation
    table is in a non MMIO region).
    If there is no such entry found, then Xen will try to map the address as
    a MMIO region (assuming that the Stage 1 translation table is in a
    direct MMIO region).
    
    If that fails as well, then there are the two following scenarios:-
    1. Stage 1 translation table being in an emulated MMIO region - Xen
    can read the region, but it has no way to return the value read to the
    CPU page table walker (which tries to go through the stage1 tables to
    resolve the translation fault).
    
    2. Stage 1 translation table address is invalid.
    
    In both the above scenarios, Xen will forward the abort to the guest.
