Subject: Re: [PATCH] Xen: Fix retry calls into PRIVCMD_MMAPBATCH*.

-- Resend as I haven't seen this hit the lists. Maybe some smtp misconfig. Apologies. Also expanded cc --

When a foreign mapper attempts to map guest frames that are paged out,
the mapper receives an ENOENT response and will have to try again
while a helper process pages the target frame back in.

Gating checks on PRIVCMD_MMAPBATCH* ioctl args were preventing retries
of mapping calls.
