Subject: [PATCH 08/15] xen/dom0: Use host E820 map

From: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@...rix.com>

Unlike the non-paravirt Xen port we do not have distinct psuedo-physical
and I/O memory resource-spaces and therefore resources in the two
can clash. Fix this by registering a memory map which matches the
underlying I/O map. Currently this wastes the memory in the reserved
regions. Eventually we should remap this memory to the end of the
address space.
