[PATCH 07/16] xen/arm: mm: Allocate xen page tables in domheap rather than xenheap



From: Julien Grall <jgrall@xxxxxxxxxx>

xen_{un,}map_table() already uses the helper to map/unmap pages
on-demand (note this is currently a NOP on arm64). So switching to
domheap don't have any disavantage.

But this as the benefit:
    - to keep the page tables unmapped if an arch decided to do so
    - reduce xenheap use on arm32 which can be pretty small

Signed-off-by: Julien Grall <jgrall@xxxxxxxxxx>
