Subject[PATCH] xen: fix allocation and use of large ldts
When the ldt gets to more than 1 page in size, the kernel uses vmalloc
to allocate it. This means that:
- when making the ldt RO, we must update the pages in both the vmalloc
mapping and the linear mapping to make sure there are no RW aliases.
- we need to use arbitrary_virt_to_machine to compute the machine addr
for each update
