Shouldn't these, and the rest of the file, be using the PTE accessor
macros set_pte,clear_pte etc? The boot_ioremap it replaces seems to have
done. Otherwise these patches don't appear to be paravirt_ops clean. I
haven't had a chance to investigate fully so this might be a Xen bug or
unrelated to this patch but running current x86.git#mm as a Xen guest
ends up with it being shot in the head by the hypervisor with:

This corresponds to the dereference of *bp in get_bios_ebda():
        static inline unsigned long get_bios_ebda(void)
        {
                unsigned short *bp;
                unsigned long address;
        
                bp = early_ioremap(0x40EUL, 2);
                if (!bp)
                        return 0;
        
                address = *bp;
