 *
 * This driver uses Xen's grant table API to gain access to the memory of
 * the remote domains it serves.  When our domain is operating in PV mode,
 * the grant table mechanism directly updates our domain's page table entries
 * to point to the physical pages of the remote domain.  This scheme guarantees
 * that blkback and the backing devices it uses can safely perform DMA
 * operations to satisfy requests.  In HVM mode, Xen may use a HW IOMMU to
 * insure that our domain cannot DMA to pages owned by another domain.  As
 * of Xen 4.0, IOMMU mappings for HVM guests are not updated via the grant
 * table API.  For this reason, in HVM mode, we must bounce all requests into
 * memory that is mapped into our domain at domain startup and thus has
 * valid IOMMU mappings.
