I think the check is misplaced, it should go after:

if ( level < 3 && p2m_table(orig_pte) )
  return P2M_ONE_DESCEND;

It's because this code path can now be called with either a P2M Table or 
a P2M entry. You will get wrong error message and may log many times the 
same issue.
Also I've reported an issue to Ian about this code path today. If the 
guest balloning driver or your MMIO unmap a single 4K entry, it may fail 
or remove a  superpage by mistake.

You have to print the domain id, otherwise we don't know where the issue 
comes from.
As said on the previous version, you can't use gdprintk to print the 
domain id. So you will have to do it yourself.
