regions above the end of RAM as 1:1") introduced a regression.
To be able to add memory pages which were added via memory hotplug to
a pv domain, the pages must be "invalid" instead of "identity" in the
p2m list before they can be added.

Should not we fill everything above "maxmem" with
INVALID_P2M_ENTRY at boot time?
In this case we shouldn't report "identity" for pfns above maxmem, too.
Otherwise we could change behaviour of the kernel regarding PCI
passthrough just by changing CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_LIMIT
which doesn't sound right.
