This patch adds support for reference counting pages of I/O memory using
a red-black tree. Pages are only tracked when needed (there's no reason
to account for every page in a 32-bit or 64-bit address space!). This is
important for being able to identify when a page of memory is still
in-use by a domain before giving it to another domain.

Signed-off-by: Ryan Wilson <hap9@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
