Yeah, that would work nicely too. Thought we would have to store the
size somewhere. Maybe a struct then.

struct xlat_grant_frames {
	int	nr;
	xen_pfn_t	*array;
	struct page	*page;
};

Just (pte.pte & ~PAGE_FLAGS) >> PAGE_SHIFT.

Hmm, I would rather actually keep that until I fix the underlaying issue
of why v2 can't be used. And then we can get rid of this workaround.

<nods>

Actually, looking at how the xen-platform-pci does it. I am wondering
if that can be just made in one function that will do the right
thing.

Can the xen-platform-pci use balloon pages instead of the MMIO BARs?
Or would that be a waste of memory?

<nods> And have some early init that sets this up.

Right. Thanks for reminding me!
