SubjectRe: [patch 04/26] Xen-paravirt_ops: Add pagetable accessors to pack and unpack pagetable entries

looks good.

only some minor style nits:

missing newlines between inline functions.

no need for the closing !CONFIG_PARAVIRT comment: this define is 2 lines
long so it's not that hard to find the start of the block. We typically
do the /* !CONFIG_XX */ comment only for larger blocks, and when
multiple #endif's intermix.

newlines.

(for example here the #endif comment is justified.)
