Keir,
Here's a first draft on an implementation on the memory_map
hypercall. I would like to have comments on this, specially at:
1) I set a new field in the domain structure, and use it whenever it's
set to determine the maximum map. In case it's not, using max_mem will
most probably give us a better bound than tot_pages, as it may allow us
to balloon up later even when using tools that does not call the new
domctl (yet to come) that sets the map limit.
2) However, as it currently breaks dom0, I'm leaving it unimplemented in
this case, and plan to do better than that when you apply the changes
you said you would in dom0 max_mem representation.
I'm currently working on the domctl side of things, but I'd like to have
this sorted out first.
Thank you!

[XEN] Implement the memory_map hypercall
It's needed to provide guests with an idea of a physical
mapping that may differ from simply what's needed to fit
tot_pages.
