[PATCH 3.14 58/88] x86/xen: use vmap() to map grant table pages in PVH guests

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Sep 03 2014 - 18:13:39 EST


3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7d951f3ccb0308c95bf76d5eef9886dea35a7013 upstream.

Commit b7dd0e350e0b (x86/xen: safely map and unmap grant frames when
in atomic context) causes PVH guests to crash in
arch_gnttab_map_shared() when they attempted to map the pages for the
grant table.

This use of a PV-specific function during the PVH grant table setup is
non-obvious and not needed. The standard vmap() function does the
right thing.
