Thanks!
I'll add the following patch to the xentip queue:

commit be0000f4d132cd6db37babd0fd3fb5d1029f9515
Author: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

arm64: introduce virt_to_pfn

virt_to_pfn has been defined in arch/arm/include/asm/memory.h by commit
e26a9e0 "ARM: Better virt_to_page() handling" and Xen has come to rely
on it. Introduce virt_to_pfn on arm64 too.
