[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2] xen: prevent PVH Dom0 from having pages with more than one ref



With the current implementation of the Dom0 domain builder a PVH Dom0
ends up with pages that have 2 references, which means they are not
freed when Dom0 balloons memory down. This leads to those pages
not being freed in guest_remove_page, so they are leaked and the
memory accounting between Xen and Dom0 differs, because Dom0 OS
actually thinks they are freed, but d->tot_pages is not decreased.

Changes since v1:
 - Fix coding style.
 - Fix a second occurrence of the same issue.
 - Use paging_mode_translate instead of is_pvh_domain.
