[PATCH] xen: set vma flag VM_PFNMAP in the privcmd mmap file_op

[Stefano Stabellini]

Hi all,
this patch fixes the dom0 kernel crash when creating a VM.
Now I am able to create VMs successfully on 2.6.37 rc1, even though
without disk or network access.

xen: set vma flag VM_PFNMAP in the privcmd mmap file_op

Set VM_PFNMAP in the privcmd mmap file_op, rather than later in
xen_remap_domain_mfn_range when it is too late because
vma_wants_writenotify has already been called and vm_page_prot has
already been modified.
