As discussed in the thread starting at http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2010-05/msg01383.html, don't save Xen heap pages in order to avoid overallocation when the domain gets restored, as those pages would get (temporarily) backed with normal RAM pages by the restore code. This requires making DOMCTL_getpageframeinfo{2,3} usable for HVM guests, meaning that the input to these must be treated as GMFNs.
