I thought a bit more about Dom0 been a 1:1 domain. It is only true for 
Device Memory and the initial RAM allocated for Dom0.

Dom0 may balloon out some pages because it has to map region belonging 
to other domain. Those regions will not be 1:1 mapped and translation 
will be needed if used.

The problem is very similar to DMA in dom0. I can't see any reason to 
not use those regions with OP-TEE. Am I wrong here?

Cheers,
