[Xen-devel] [PATCH 1/2] x86/HVM: latch linear->phys translation results

["Jan Beulich" <JBeulich@xxxxxxxx>]

... to avoid re-doing the same translation later again (in a retry, for
example). This doesn't help very often according to my testing, but
it's pretty cheap to have, and will be of further use subsequently.
