[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 3/8] xen/x86: Construct the {l2, l3}_bootmap at compile time



... rather than at runtime.

The bootmaps are discarded in zap_low_mappings(), so the tables themselves can
live in .init.data and be reclaimed after boot.

Hooking the l1_identmap into l2_xenmap stays for safety, along with a longer
comment explaining why.
