Xen needs to know that the current page belongs to another domain. Also take
the refcount to this page.

      Changes in v2:
          - Even if gcc is buggy (see 
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18501)
          define p2m type per mapspace to let the compiler warns about 
unitialized
          values.

and a few other places...

Like with the unmap it might be best to push this reference manipulation
down into the eventual function which makes the mapping. That would keep
this stuff much more localised.

Forget to answer to this part:

We need to take the reference with foreign domain in parameter,
otherwise we don't really know if the foreign domain has unlikely
removed the mapping between the hypercall was called and now.

Are we not holding the p2m lock at this point?

p2m lock of which domain? For now, neither of foreign and current domain lock are taken in this function.

We probably do need to do the final check and unmap with the lock held.
Either by moving the unmap within the same lock as the lookup or perhaps
with some sort of cmpxchg mechanism where we pass in the pte value we
think we are tearing down. Just checking the type may not be sufficient
if the guest tears down one foreign mapping and replaces it with
another.

I'm not sure to follow you, are you talking about remove the foreign mapping? If so, I have reworking all the removing code to include the put_page (see V3).
