Domain 1 presented a pagetable entry mapping a page that either it does not
own, or is unable to map with write permissions (e.g., because it is already
a pagetable page and permitting write mappings would be unsafe).

Dom0 tried to map a page via a grant reference passed to it by another
domain (probably dom1). When Xen checked the permissions in dom1's grant
table, it found all zeroes, which is invalid. This is probably related to
the above page-table error: perhaps the failed mapping is of dom1's extended
grant table and hence it failed to write grant details into the grant table.
That's the angle I would investigate with further tracing in Xen and in
dom0's grant-table code.
