Hmmm... gfn_to_mfn() when used as below seems to just
return the original gfn, e.g.
guest_mfn = gfn_to_mfn(current->domain,gpfn,&t);
Is this correct? Note that current->domain is a 32-bit
paravirtualized domain and xen is 64-bit, if that matters.
(Is there a better way if one knows that the domain is
always pv?)

In copying the other direction (e.g. copy_page_TO_guest),
I think I need to check for t==p2m_ram_rw, right?
If so, the "Not necessarily true" comment in static
inline _gfn_to_mfn in include/asm-x86/p2m.h worries me.
Should it?
