I'll dig around and see if we can find something that explains more.
There's some older code that implements some sort of address-translation
for x86 between ram_addr space and guest physical addresses but
that code is turned off with newer Xen versions (disabled in my build).
https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/hw/xen/xen-mapcache.c#L330
