Hi Oleksii,

I would rephrase “xen: rename p2m_ipa_bits to p2m_gpa_bits” into something like
“xen/device-tree: use p2m_gpa_bits in common code”, because we are not really
renaming p2m_ipa_bits, we are only defining an alias.

Make sense. I will rephrase commit message according to your suggestion.

The IPA terminology is Arm-specific, so rename p2m_ipa_bits to
p2m_gpa_bits to use architecture-neutral naming in
xen/common/device-tree/ code.

No functional changes.

Changes in v4:
- Nothing changed only rebase.

Changes in v3:
- Introduce #define p2m_gpa_bits p2m_ipa_bits for Arm instead of
   renaming of p2m_ipa_bits to p2m_gpa_bits to keep Arm part of
   changes clearer and keep using Arm-specific terminolgy inside
   Arm code.

Changes in v2:
- New patch.
