I think they're too high for that, but if you can post the e820 map of
the system this happened on then we'll know.

But they're not mapped into the guest - from the look of them they're
not mapped anywhere.  You could add some extra printouts around that
warning in mm.c to show whether the MFNs are valid and if so which
domain owns them.

Also, interesting that it's the addresses just above 0xffff800000000000
that are different - what lives at that address in the PV kernel you're
running?

Tim.
