What's calling direct_remap_page_range?

My suspicion is that the driver is allocating some memory and then
calling ioremap on it, which isn't a good thing to do as its not MMIO
memory. You can get away with this on native, but not Xen.

Can you point us at the appropriate section of the driver code.

Thanks,
Ian
