Subject: [PATCH 1/6] xen: add functions for mapping foreign pages over pages

From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@...rix.com>

Add xenbus_map_ring_page() and xenbus_unmap_ring_page() which map and
unmap foreign pages over a page instead of mapping them into vmalloc
address space.  This avoids having to do an expensive
vmalloc_sync_all().
