[patch 16/26] Xen-paravirt_ops: Allocate and free vmalloc areas

[Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org>]

[-- Attachment #1: alloc-vm-area.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2540 bytes --]

Allocate/destroy a 'vmalloc' VM area: alloc_vm_area and free_vm_area
The alloc function ensures that page tables are constructed for the
region of kernel virtual address space and mapped into init_mm.
