This ioctl allows the users of a shared page to be notified when
the other end exits abnormally.

HVM does not allow direct PTE modification, so instead we request
that Xen change its internal p2m mappings on the allocated pages and
map the memory into userspace normally.
Note:
The HVM path for map and unmap is slightly different: HVM keeps the pages
mapped until the area is deleted, while the PV case (use_ptemod being true)
must unmap them when userspace unmaps the range. In the normal use case,
this makes no difference to users since unmap time is deletion time.

This allows userspace to perform mmap() on the gntdev device and then
immediately close the filehandle or remove the mapping using the
remove ioctl, with the mapped area remaining valid until unmapped.
This also fixes an infinite loop when a gntdev device is closed
without first unmapping all areas.

This should be faster if many mappings exist, and also removes
the only user of map->vma not related to PTE modification.

Because there is no limitation on how many times a user can open a
given device file, an per-file-description limit on the number of
pages granted offers little to no benefit. Change to a global limit
and remove the ioctl() as the parameter can now be changed via sysfs.
Xen tools changeset 22768:f8d801e5573e is needed to eliminate the
error this change produces in xc_gnttab_set_max_grants.

Use gnttab_map_refs and gnttab_unmap_refs to map and unmap the grant
ref, so that we can have a corresponding struct page.

apply_to_page_range will acquire PTE lock while priv->lock is held,
and mn_invl_range_start tries to acquire priv->lock with PTE already
held. Fix by not holding priv->lock during the entire map operation.
This is safe because map->vma is set nonzero while the lock is held,
which will cause subsequent maps to fail and will cause the unmap
ioctl (and other users of gntdev_del_map) to return -EBUSY until the
area is unmapped. It is similarly impossible for gntdev_vma_close to
be called while the vma is still being created.

It's the struct page of the L1 pte page. But we can get its mfn
by simply doing an arbitrary_virt_to_machine() on it anyway (which is
the safe conservative choice; since we no longer allow HIGHPTE pages,
we would never expect to be operating on a mapped pte page).

This flag controls the meaning of gnttab_map_grant_ref.host_addr and
specifies that the field contains a reference to the pte entry to be
used to perform the mapping. Therefore move the use of this flag to
the point at which we actually use a reference to the pte instead of
something else, splitting up the usage of the flag in this way is
confusing and potentially error prone.
The other flags are all properties of the mapping itself as opposed to
properties of the hypercall arguments and therefore it make sense to
continue to pass them round in map->flags.

These pages are from other domains, so don't have any local PFN.
VM_PFNMAP is the closest concept Linux has to this.

The gntdev driver allows usermode to map granted pages from other
domains. This is typically used to implement a Xen backend driver
in user mode.
