The original code added dom0-specific dma mapping stuff in the generic
place, which is completely wrong. I asked you to move the hacky stuff
to Xen-specific code and ack'ed the patchset.

But as I said again and again, the dom0 changes to the generic dma
mapipng code is really ugly and I don't like them at all. I didn't
ack'ed such changes.
