------------------------------------------------------
Subject: xen-paravirt_ops: paravirt_ops: allocate a fixmap slot
From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xxxxxxxx>

Allocate a fixmap slot for use by a paravirt_ops implementation.  This is
intended for early-boot bootstrap mappings.  Once the zones and allocator have
been set up, it would be better to use get_vm_area() to allocate some virtual
space.

Xen uses this to map the hypervisor's shared info page, which doesn't have a
pseudo-physical page number, and therefore can't be mapped ordinarily.  It is
needed early because it contains the vcpu state, including the interrupt mask.
