Hi, Isaku
Attached patch should fix the issue. Paravirtualized ivt and HVM ivt
share the code for frametable_miss handling, but they have different
assumptions for registers useage. IPSR is savded in r21 at paravirtualized
side, but r29 is used for HVM side.
This patch uniform them to use r29 for ipsr save.
Thanks
Xiantao
PATCH: Fix frametable_miss handling for HVM guests.
For hvm guests, hypervisor use mfn_valid to check mfn, but it will incur
weird faults. It is becasue ipsr is saved in r29, but frametalbe miss assumes
saved in r21.
