If this is for populate_physmap only, then other sub-ops need to reject
its use.
I have to admit I'm a little wary of allocating another flag here and ...

... here - we don't have that many left. Since other sub-ops aren't
intended to support this flag, did you consider adding another (perhaps
even arch-specific) sub-op instead?
Not really, I basically followed the discussion from [1] to implement
this patch. However I understand your concern. Just want to make sure if
I understand your suggestion correctly, by "adding another sub-op" you
mean adding a sub-op similar as "XENMEM_populate_physmap" but only with
executing the "else" part I want, so we can drop the use of these two
added flags? Thanks!

In which case please check with Julien (and perhaps other Arm maintainers)
before deciding on whether to go this alternative route.
Yes sure, I will wait a bit longer for the agreement of the discussion
before implementing the code.
Kind regards,
Henry
