+- fix HVMCOPY_gfn_paged_out handling
+  some callers of __hvm_copy() do not handle HVMCOPY_gfn_paged_out, such
+  as hypercalls and the MMIO emulation
+  the recently added waitqueue feature in Xen 4.1 should be used
+- remove all retry code from gfn_to_mfn() calls
+  use the waitqueue feature to hide page-in from the caller and cover
+  all cases where a retry is currently missing
+- do not bounce p2mt to xenpaging
+  p2m_mem_paging_populate/p2m_mem_paging_resume dont make use of p2mt
