 While at this remove superfluous setting of first_p2m_pfn and
 nr_p2m_frames as those are needed only in case of the p2m list not
 being mapped by the initial kernel mapping.

Do we strongly need this as globals? I suppose that
both of them could be local to grub_xen_boot.

This would require passing the state pointer to many other functions.
Same applies to virt_mfn_list.

I just followed the style used in the source already: variables used in
multiple functions are mostly defined globally (there are even some
which are used in one function only).

Well, I do not like that style but if maintainer do not object I will

[PATCH v2 1/6] xen: factor out p2m list allocation into separate function

[Juergen Gross]

Do the p2m list allocation of the to be loaded kernel in a separate
function. This will allow doing the p2m list allocation at different
times of the boot preparations depending on the features the kernel
is supporting.

While at this remove superfluous setting of first_p2m_pfn and
nr_p2m_frames as those are needed only in case of the p2m list not
being mapped by the initial kernel mapping.
