>This patch adds support for a new resource type that can be mapped using
>the XENMEM_acquire_resource memory op.
>
>If an emulator makes use of this resource type then, instead of mapping
>gfns, the IOREQ server will allocate pages which are assigned to the
>emulating domain. These pages will never be present in the P2M of the
>guest at any point (and are not even shared with the guest) and so are not
>vulnerable to any direct attack by the guest.
>
>NOTE: Use of the new resource type is not compatible with use of
>XEN_DMOP_get_ioreq_server_info unless the XEN_DMOP_no_gfns flag is
>set.
