This reads as if the hypervisor was imposing a limit here, but looking at
xen_get_max_pages(), xen_foreach_remap_area(), and
xen_count_remap_pages() I take it that it's a restriction enforced by
the Xen subsystem in Linux. Furthermore from the cover letter I imply
that the observed issue was on a Dom0, yet xen_get_max_pages()'s
use of XENMEM_maximum_reservation wouldn't impose any limit there
at all (without use of the hypervisor option "dom0_mem=max:..."),
would it?
