xen: Speed up set_phys_to_machine() by using read-only mappings Instead of checking at each call of set_phys_to_machine() whether a new p2m page has to be allocated due to writing an entry in a large invalid or identity area, just map those areas read only and react to a page fault on write by allocating the new page. This change will make the common path with no allocation much faster as it only requires a single write of the new mfn instead of walking the address translation tables and checking for the special cases.
