So that's because in patch 20 you need to keep
get_page_from_l1e() in x86/mm.c, due to being used by shadow
code. But is shadow using the same disallow mask for HVM guests
actually correct? Perhaps it would be better for callers of
get_page_from_l1e() to pass in their disallow masks, even if it
would just so happen that PV and shadow use the same ones?
Tim, do you have any thoughts or insights here?
