Currently we have this quirk enabled in DomD (driver domain)

I've tried this and all is working (I can map and then unmap memory in both
directions DomU -> DomD, DomD -> DomU)

Currently this quirk is enabled in DomD. In this case I can map memory from
DomU to DomD (as it done in all PV drivers). But is this quirk is
enabled in DomU,
I can also map memory from DomD to DomU.
