The implementation looks good but I'm concerned about the need for it,
since linear scans of busy grant tables could get fairly expensive.

I see in patch 3/4 you add a hypercall to flush caches, taking an mfn
range.  Should that not take a gfn range?  That would be the idiomatic
interface, and the p2m lookup would tell you whether the guest had
appropiate rights.

I suspect, from reading 0/4, that I'm missing something about the
tangle of non-IOMMU dom0 operations on ARM. :)

Cheers,

Tim
