I think I would say:

--
Now use the hypervisor-supplied memory map to build our final e820 table:
* Add regions for BIOS ranges and other special mappings not in the
hypervisor map
* Add in the hypervisor regions
* Adjust the lowmem and highmem regions if we've had to relocate
memory (adding a highmem region if necessary)
* Sort all the ranges so that they appear in memory order.

Won't this BUG if the guest was actually given less than 2GiB of RAM?

What if there was originally no high memory, but resizing the pci hole
meant we had to create a high memory region?

Other than those things, looks good.
