Both here and in the following patch, I'm afraid I'm unsure of it's
usefulness. I'm leaning towards this being code churn for very little
benefit.
Also, I'm not sure I see how the patch prevents further usage of
mfn_to_virt(), as (for Arm) the existing macro is not removed. If
anything I would prefer a comment clearly stating that the macro
operates on directmap space, and avoid the name change.
Thanks, Roger.
