From: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 3c56b3a12ce52f361468cbdd2f79b2f3b8da0ea6 ]

Commit 25b884a83d487fd62c3de7ac1ab5549979188482 ("x86/xen: set
regions above the end of RAM as 1:1") introduced a regression.

To be able to add memory pages which were added via memory hotplug to
a pv domain, the pages must be "invalid" instead of "identity" in the
p2m list before they can be added.
