What makes you think so? Iirc there are several xmalloc()-s of more
than a page in size (which ultimately will call alloc_heap_pages()),
and those usually don't have a fallback.

Even in a debug build this may be really annoying: On NUMA machines,
the dma_bitsize mechanism (to avoid exhausting DMA memory) can
cause close to 2000 of these messages when allocating Dom0's
initial memory (in the absence of a severely restricting dom0_mem,
and with node 0 spanning 4G or more). This makes booting
unacceptably slow, especially when using a graphical console mode.
