[Xen-devel] [PATCH v4 2/9] x86: introduce a new set of APIs to manage Xen page tables



From: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@xxxxxxxxxx>

We are going to switch to using domheap page for page tables.
A new set of APIs is introduced to allocate, map, unmap and free pages
for page tables.

The allocation and deallocation work on mfn_t but not page_info,
because they are required to work even before frame table is set up.

Implement the old functions with the new ones. We will rewrite, site
by site, other mm functions that manipulate page tables to use the new
APIs.

Note these new APIs still use xenheap page underneath and no actual
map and unmap is done so that we don't break xen half way. They will
be switched to use domheap and dynamic mappings when usage of old APIs
is eliminated.

No functional change intended in this patch.

Changed since v3:
- const qualify unmap_xen_pagetable_new().
- remove redundant parentheses.
