What happens if the page is PageHighMem?

This looks like a subset of m2p_add_override, but it is missing some
relevant bits, like the PageHighMem check, or the p2m(m2p(mfn)) == mfn
check.  Maybe we can find a way to avoid duplicating the code.
We could split m2p_add_override in two functions or add yet another
parameter to it.

same here: let's try to avoid code duplication
