I found this a little bit misleading because when I looked for
XEN_VIRT_SIZE, I am having:
#define XEN_VIRT_SIZE _AT(vaddr_t, MB(8))
May I please suggest it is better to keep the example in commit message
consistent with the actual value used in code?

I am not sure this is a typo: s/reversed/reserved/, but I find the current
sentence a little bit hard to understand.

Both comment above can be fixed on commit, so:
Reviewed-by: Henry Wang <Henry.Wang@xxxxxxx>
I've also tested this patch on top of today's staging by our internal CI,
and I don't see any build error there, hence also:
Tested-by: Henry Wang <Henry.Wang@xxxxxxx>
Kind regards,
