[Xen-devel] [PATCH] Fix ptr calculation when converting from a VA



From: Jean-Yves Migeon <jym@xxxxxxxxxx>

The ptr calculation shall take the offset into the page into account
when ptr is valid.

Reported regression on NetBSD's port-xen with last known working libxen
being rev 2.9. This corrupts the kernel symbol table when the table is
not loaded on a page boundary.

Issue was tracked down by FastIce and Jeff Rizzo. See also
