[PATCH RFCv2 14/15] xen/arm: mm: Rework setup_xenheap_mappings()



From: Julien Grall <julien.grall@xxxxxxx>

A few issues have been reported with setup_xenheap_mappings() over the
last couple of years. The main ones are:
    - It will break on platform supporting more than 512GB of RAM
      because the memory allocated by the boot allocator is not yet
      mapped.
    - Aligning all the regions to 1GB may lead to unexpected result
      because we may alias non-cacheable region (such as device or reserved
      regions).

map_pages_to_xen() was recently reworked to allow superpage mappings and
deal with the use of page-tables before they are mapped.

Most of the code in setup_xenheap_mappings() is now replaced with a
single call to map_pages_to_xen().

This also require to re-order the steps setup_mm() so the regions are
given to the boot allocator first and then we setup the xenheap
mappings.

Note that the 1GB alignment is not yet removed.
