Thread-topic: Xenheap issue on 32b
Hi Keir,

The issue causes page fault when the MACing code tries to access the page and 
hang.
I suggest to initialize that page (I think it is in use because of dirty 
content) as unused, or xenheap_phys_end minus one page.

Which one do you prefer?

Thanks.
Shane
