One further remark on this patch as a whole: create_perdomain_mapping() allows the L1 tables to be returned, and I think making this fit your needs (if it doesn't in its current shape) might be better than introducing new functions which in the end only want to fiddle with the L1 entries of previously established mappings. This might also help mapping the pCPU's GDT into the vCPU's per-domain mappings during context switch, as suggested elsewhere.
