The current implementations of xen_{map, unmap}_table() expect
{map, unmap}_domain_page() to be usable. Those helpers are used to
map/unmap page tables while update Xen page-tables.

Since commit 022387ee1a "xen/arm: mm: Don't open-code Xen PT update in
{set, clear}_fixmap()", setup_fixmap() will make use of the helpers
mentioned above. When booting Xen using GRUB, setup_fixmap() may be used
before map_domain_page() can be called. This will result to data abort:

(XEN) Data Abort Trap. Syndrome=0x5
(XEN) CPU0: Unexpected Trap: Data Abort

[...]

(XEN) Xen call trace:

(XEN)    [<000000000020044c>] arm64/head.o#paging+0x60/0x88

During early boot, the page tables are either statically allocated in
Xen binary or allocated via alloc_boot_pages().

For statically allocated page-tables, they will already be mapped as
part of Xen binary. So we can easily find the virtual address.

For dynamically allocated page-tables, we need to rely
map_domain_page() to be functionally working.

For arm32, the call will be usable much before page can be dynamically
allocated (see setup_pagetables()). For arm64, the call will be usable
after setup_xenheap_mappings().

In both cases, memory are given to the boot allocator afterwards. So we
can rely on map_domain_page() for mapping page tables allocated
dynamically.

The helpers xen_{map, unmap}_table() are now updated to take into
account the case where page-tables are part of Xen binary.

Fixes: 022387ee1a ('xen/arm: mm: Don't open-code Xen PT update in {set, clear}_fixmap()')

    Changes in v3:
        - Use is_xen_fixed_mfn
        - Add a comment about demoting the type.

    Changes in v2:
        - Add RaB Juergen
        - Rework the check to avoid truncation

    Note this patch relies on is_xen_fixed_mfn to be correct (see [1]).
