x86: remove the Xen-specific _PAGE_IOMAP PTE flag
The _PAGE_IO_MAP PTE flag was only used by Xen PV guests to mark PTEs that were used to map I/O regions that are 1:1 in the p2m. This allowed Xen to obtain the correct PFN when converting the MFNs read from a PTE back to their PFN. Xen guests no longer use _PAGE_IOMAP for this. Instead mfn_to_pfn() returns the correct PFN by using a combination of the m2p and p2m to determine if an MFN corresponds to a 1:1 mapping in the the p2m. Remove _PAGE_IOMAP, replacing it with _PAGE_UNUSED2 to allow for future uses of the PTE flag. Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Acked-by: "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@zytor.com>
