[PATCH 14/17] xenpaging: prevent page-out of first 16MB

[Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de>]

[-- Attachment #1: xen-unstable.xenpaging.blacklist.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 824 bytes --]

This is more a workaround than a bugfix:
Don't page out first 16MB of memory.
When the BIOS does its initialization process and xenpaging removes pages,
crashes will occour due to lack of support of xenpaging.
