Yes, the pages I need to map into the guest have been vmalloc'ed by
xen_fbfront and mmap'ed into Qemu.
I didn't realize we could use any gmfn we wanted with
XENMAPSPACE_grant_table.
Jiageng: in the Linux implementation of the new ioctl, you can just call
gnttab_grant_foreign_access to grant access to the guest to framebuffer,
then you can use HYPERVISOR_memory_op(XENMEM_add_to_physmap, &xatp) with
XENMAPSPACE_grant_table and the returned grant reference as idx to map
the pages into the guest.
