Title and description talk about XENMEM_set_memory_map only. As
I think the implementation is right, the former will need updating. Do
you actually need a HVM domain to be able to XENMEM_set_memory_map

Yes. Actually we need to enable two hypercalls here,

#1. XENMEM_set_memory_map --> Set
#2. XENMEM_memory_map --> Get

on itself? If not, it should probably replace XENMEM_memory_map here.


Just rephrase,

xen: enable XENMEM set/get memory_map in hvm

This patch enables XENMEM_set_memory_map in hvm and then we can use
it to setup the e820 mappings, and finally hvmloader can get
these mappings with XENMEM_memory_map.

Thanks
