[Xen-devel] [PATCH v1 02/10] KVM: x86/mmu: Prepare kvm_is_mmio_pfn() for PG_reserved changes

[David Hildenbrand <david@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Right now, ZONE_DEVICE memory is always set PG_reserved. We want to
change that.

KVM has this weird use case that you can map anything from /dev/mem
into the guest. pfn_valid() is not a reliable check whether the memmap
was initialized and can be touched. pfn_to_online_page() makes sure
that we have an initialized memmap (and don't have ZONE_DEVICE memory).

Rewrite kvm_is_mmio_pfn() to make sure the function produces the
same result once we stop setting ZONE_DEVICE pages PG_reserved.
