With the lack of iommu, dom0 must have a 1:1 memory mapping for all

Otherwise, we will loose the 1:1 mapping and will break DMA-capable
devices.

Keir, any objections to this patch?

Hi Ian,

Do we need to wait Keir Ack? Without this patch most of supported ARM platform won't be able to create guest correctly. On the Arndale, the network is unstable and on midway, the kernel get stucks.
It would be nice to have this patch for the next Xen 4.4 RC.

Sincerely yours,
