Subject: [PATCH V4 2/6] arm/xen: Switch to use gnttab_setup_auto_xlat_frames() for DT

From: Oleksandr Tyshchenko <oleksandr_tyshchenko@...m.com>

Read the start address of the grant table space from DT
(region 0).

This patch mostly restores behaviour before commit 3cf4095d7446
("arm/xen: Use xen_xlate_map_ballooned_pages to setup grant table")
but trying not to break the ACPI support added after that commit.
So the patch touches DT part only and leaves the ACPI part with
xen_xlate_map_ballooned_pages(). Also in order to make a code more
resilient use a fallback to xen_xlate_map_ballooned_pages() if grant
table region wasn't found.

This is a preparation for using Xen extended region feature
where unused regions of guest physical address space (provided
by the hypervisor) will be used to create grant/foreign/whatever
mappings instead of wasting real RAM pages from the domain memory
for establishing these mappings.

The immediate benefit of this change:
- Avoid superpage shattering in Xen P2M when establishing
  stage-2 mapping (GFN <-> MFN) for the grant table space
- Avoid wasting real RAM pages (reducing the amount of memory
  usuable) for mapping grant table space
- The grant table space is always mapped at the exact
  same place (region 0 is reserved for the grant table)

Changes RFC -> V2:
   - new patch

Changes V2 -> V3:
   - add __read_mostly specifier to xen_grant_frames
   - retain a fallback to xen_xlate_map_ballooned_pages() if
     xen_grant_frames is invalid
   - process xen_events_irq before xen_grant_frames in
     xen_dt_guest_init()
   - update patch description

Changes V3 -> V4:
   - add Stefano's R-b
   - remove first condition in "if (!acpi_disabled || !xen_grant_frames)"
