xen/p2m: check MFN is in range before using the m2p table
On hosts with more than 168 GB of memory, a 32-bit guest may attempt to grant map an MFN that is error cannot lookup in its mapping of the m2p table. There is an m2p lookup as part of m2p_add_override() and m2p_remove_override(). The lookup falls off the end of the mapped portion of the m2p and (because the mapping is at the highest virtual address) wraps around and the lookup causes a fault on what appears to be a user space address. do_page_fault() (thinking it's a fault to a userspace address), tries to lock mm->mmap_sem. If the gntdev device is used for the grant map, m2p_add_override() is called from from gnttab_mmap() with mm->mmap_sem already locked. do_page_fault() then deadlocks. The deadlock would most commonly occur when a 64-bit guest is started and xenconsoled attempts to grant map its console ring. Introduce mfn_to_pfn_no_overrides() which checks the MFN is within the mapped portion of the m2p table before accessing the table and use this in m2p_add_override(), m2p_remove_override(), and mfn_to_pfn() (which already had the correct range check). All faults caused by accessing the non-existant parts of the m2p are thus within the kernel address space and exception_fixup() is called without trying to lock mm->mmap_sem. This means that for MFNs that are outside the mapped range of the m2p then mfn_to_pfn() will always look in the m2p overrides. This is correct because it must be a foreign MFN (and the PFN in the m2p in this case is only relevant for the other domain).
