Jeremy Fitzhardinge d66bf8fcf3 xen: lazy-mmu operations
This patch uses the lazy-mmu hooks to batch mmu operations where
possible.  This is primarily useful for batching operations applied to
active pagetables, which happens during mprotect, munmap, mremap and
the like (mmap does not do bulk pagetable operations, so it isn't
helped).

/*
* Xen hypercall batching.
*
* Xen allows multiple hypercalls to be issued at once, using the
* multicall interface. This allows the cost of trapping into the
* hypervisor to be amortized over several calls.
*
* This file implements a simple interface for multicalls. There's a
* per-cpu buffer of outstanding multicalls. When you want to queue a
* multicall for issuing, you can allocate a multicall slot for the
* call and its arguments, along with storage for space which is
* pointed to by the arguments (for passing pointers to structures,
* etc). When the multicall is actually issued, all the space for the
* commands and allocated memory is freed for reuse.
*
* Multicalls are flushed whenever any of the buffers get full, or
* when explicitly requested. There's no way to get per-multicall
* return results back. It will BUG if any of the multicalls fail.
*
