Please add:"

But only for pages that are created for user usages through /dev/xen/gntdev.
As in, pages that have been in use by the kernel and use the P2M will not need
this special mapping."

Just so that it is quite clear when in a year somebody wants to debug
this code and wants to figure out if this patch causes issues.

How do you trigger this case? The mapping looks to be set by "gntdev_add_map"
which is happening right after in gntdev_alloc_map..

If it had failed from the gntdev_alloc_map to gntdev_add_map this page would
have never been used in the m2p as we would not have provided the proper
op.index value to the user. Which mean that the user could not have mmaped
and gotten to this code.

> +			if (map_op->handle == -1) {

The other one I can understand, but this one I am baffled by. How
would the xen_mc_flush trigger the handle to be set to -1?

Is the hypercall writting that value in the op.handle after it has completed?

Also, we might want to document somwhere -1 now that I think of it.
It does not look like that is a value that is defined anywhere.

I am not sure that is neccesseray? When we are done, err, when we end
up calling here that means the region has been unmapped or
IOCTL_GNTDEV_UNMAP_GRANT_REF called right?

And when we do end up here, then the a whole bunch of those pages
get free-ed? Don't they?

And it looks like having kmap->ops.host_addr = 0 is valid
so that is good on the chance it is high map... but that begs
the question whether we should the hypercall at all?

As in, can we do anything with the grants if there is no PTE
or MFN associated with it - just the handle? Does Xen do something
special - like a relaxed "oh ok, we can handle that later on" ?

So, on startup.. (before this function is called) the
find_grant_ptes is called which pretty much does the exact thing for
each virtual address.  Except its flags are GNTMAP_application_map
instead of GNTMAP_host_map.

It even uses the same type structure.. It fills out map_ops[i] one.

Can we use that instead of adding a new structure?
