The PageHighMem() check isn't relevant as we're not mapping anything here. Also, a page for a kernel grant mapping only cannot be highmem. The check for a local mfn and the additional set_phys_to_machine() is only necessary if something tries an mfn_to_pfn() on the local mfn. We can only omit adding an m2p override if we know thing will try mfn_to_pfn(), therefore the check and set_phys_to_machine() is unnecessary. David
