[Xen-devel] [PATCH v4 7/9] libxc: split p2m allocation in domain builder from other magic pages

[Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>]

Carve out the p2m list allocation from the .alloc_magic_pages hook of
the domain builder in order to prepare allocating the p2m list outside
of the initial kernel mapping. This will be needed to support loading
domains with huge memory (>512 GB).
