.. snip..
So 99C00 is right at cusp of 'usuable' and 'reserved'. Meaning that region
falls within the 4KB page. And we did not set the 1-1 mapping for 99 (we
started at 9A).
But now that I think of it - this is Linux E820 which does get modified.
Can you also provide the hypervisor E820 output? You can get 'xl dmesg'
for that. That should provide the "virgin" output of the e820 which we
use for 1-1 mapping.
