[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xen/arm: p2m: Read *_mapped_gfn with the p2m lock taken

[Julien Grall <julien.grall@xxxxxxx>]

*_mapped_gfn are currently read before acquiring the lock. However, they
may be modified by the p2m code before the lock was acquired. This means
we will use the wrong values.

Fix it by moving the read inside the section protected by the p2m lock.
