Since commit 9e2369c06c8a18 ("xen: add helpers to allocate unpopulated
memory") foreign mappings are using guest physical addresses allocated
via ZONE_DEVICE functionality.
This will result in problems for the case of no balloon memory hotplug
being configured, as the p2m list will only cover the initial memory
size of the domain. Any ZONE_DEVICE allocated address will be outside
the p2m range and thus a mapping can't be established with that memory
address.
Fix that by extending the p2m size for that case. At the same time add
a check for a to be created mapping to be within the p2m limits in
order to detect errors early.
While changing a comment, remove some 32-bit leftovers.
This is XSA-369.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
