[Xen-devel] [PATCH 07/11] xen/mmu: Recycle the Xen provided L4, L3, and L2 pages

[Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@xxxxxxxxxx>]

As we are not using them. We end up only using the L1 pagetables
and grafting those to our page-tables.

[v1: Per Stefano's suggestion squashed two commits]
[v2: Per Stefano's suggestion simplified loop]
[v3: Fix smatch warnings]
