[Xen-devel] [PATCH] Fix recursive lock p2m lock acquisition in POD code



The POD code can take the p2m lock from inside a lookup.  This causes a
crash if anyone calls gfn_to_mfn* with the p2m lock held, which is quite
a few places.  Make the POD code understand that it may be called with
the lock held, and DTRT about talking or releasing it.
