[PATCH] xen/p2m: fix extra memory regions accounting

From: Roger Pau Monne
Date: Thu Sep 03 2015 - 08:06:01 EST


On systems with memory maps with ranges that don't end at page boundaries,
like:

[...]
(XEN) 0000000000100000 - 00000000dfdf9c00 (usable)
(XEN) 00000000dfdf9c00 - 00000000dfe4bc00 (ACPI NVS)
[...]

xen_add_extra_mem will create a protected range that ends up at 0xdfdf9c00,
but the function used to check if a memory address is inside of a protected
range works with pfns, which means that an attempt to map 0xdfdf9c00 will be
refused because the check is performed against 0xdfdf9000 instead of
0xdfdf9c00.

In order to fix this, make sure that the ranges that are added to the
xen_extra_mem array are aligned to page boundaries.
