This is called for PV only. What about HVM?

Do we need to tear down time memory area on VCPU suspend?

You don't really need addr and there is no reason to memset the page to
zero, given that you got it with get_zeroed_page().

pr_warn() would be more appropriate I think. You also have blank line
before 'if'.

I don't think you need these, given that you only reference flags once
below.

Did someone ask for WARN_ON()? (from your changelog it looks like it
could have been either David or me). I think pr_warn() is sufficient,
just like above.

pr_notice()
