[Xen-devel] [PATCH RFC 08/16] Save/Restore Support: Add arch_mm_pre|post_suspend

[Bruno Alvisio <bruno.alvisio@xxxxxxxxx>]

For PV guests the pagetables reference the real MFNs rather than PFNs, so when
the guest is resumed into a different area of a hosts memory, these will need to
be rewritten. Thus for PV guests the MFNs need to be replaced with PFNs:
canonicalization.

PVH guests are auto-translated so no memory operation is needed.
