Ah, lets leave it then, and just do:

    xen-blkback: don't store dev_bus_addr
    
    dev_bus_addr returned in the grant ref map operation is the mfn of the
    passed page, there's no need to store it in the persistent grant
    entry, since we can always get it provided that we have the page.
    
    This reduces the memory overhead of persistent grants in blkback.
    
    While at it, rename the 'seg[i].buf' to be 'seg[i].offset' as
    it makes much more sense - as we use that value in bio_add_page
    which as the fourth argument expects the offset.
    
    We hadn't used the physical address as part of this at all.
