The patch fixes a build problem, and the sooner we fix it,
the better it is.

Do we really need a return value other than NULL in xen_map_cache()?
Do we need the stubs for xen_map_cache_init() and 
xen_invalidate_map_cache()?
As discussed in another thread, static inline stub function might be better.
