I actually think that perhaps we could wrap privcmd_ioctl_mmap() with
"#ifdef CONFIG_XEN_PV" (#else return -ENOSYS) and move
xen_remap_domain_gfn_range() to mmu_pv.c. We can then remove it from ARM
code too.

> I assume mean 'array' for the map since there is no xen_xlate_remap_gfn_range() function. I'm not quite sure what you're asking? Without this patch the mmu code in an x86 domain simply assumes the domain is PV... the xlate code is currently only used via the arm mmu code (where it clearly knows it's not PV). AFAICS this Is just a straightforward buggy assumption in the x86 code.

Looks like this was originally intended for dom0 PVH and was removed by
063334f. So it should indeed be restored.
