[PATCH 6/7] x86/pv: remove stashing of GDT/LDT L1 page-tables

Message-ID <[email protected]>
From: Roger Pau Monné <[email protected]>

There are no remaining users of the stashed L1 page-tables in
d->arch.pv.gdt_ldt_l1tab.  Remove it, and all helpers.

pv_create_gdt_ldt_l1tab() now passes NIL() rather than the stash
array.  create_perdomain_mapping() still eagerly allocates the L1
tables covering the GDT/LDT range, but their addresses are no longer
handed back.  Doing this is necessary because
populate_perdomain_mapping() only fills existing tables, and treats
missing structure as a bug.

Changes since the previously posted version:
- Note the implications of changing from pointer to NIL() in
   pv_create_gdt_ldt_l1tab().  In v2 this also changed where new
   GDT/LDT L1 tables were allocated from: upstream's capture mode
   takes them from the xenheap (the stashed pointer has to stay
   usable), the NIL() mode from the domheap.  Here they come from the
   xenheap in all modes ("x86/mm: allocate the per-domain page-tables
   from the xenheap"), so the switch only stops the addresses being
   handed back.
