for performance it is mapped as a 4MB 'super' page, and as such needs
special treatment, is this correct?
It doesn't *have* to be mapped as a superpage -- control tools don't
when doing suspend/resume, for example. Fixing the permission checking
so that other than domain0 can remap the m2p table shouldn't be very
hard, but I'm not sure what the cleanest method would be.
actually I would just like for domUs to be able to map it in different
locations, in order to get a little more flexible memory layout.
I will probably just try and hack something up for my immediate needs.
