libxc: after saving, unmap correct amount for live_m2p
With some help from Olaf, I've finally got to the bottom of an issue I
came across while trying to implement save/restore in the libvirt
libxenlight driver. After issuing the save operation, the saved
domain was not being cleaned up properly and left in this state from
xl's perspective
xen33:# xl list
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)
Domain-0 0 6821 8 r----- 122.5
(null) 2 2 2 --pssd 10.8
Checking the libvirtd /proc/$pid/maps I found this
7f3798984000-
7f3798b86000 r--s
00002000 00:03
4026532097
/proc/xen/privcmd
So not all all pages belonging to the domain were unmapped from
libvirtd. In tools/libxc/xc_domain_save.c we found that
P2M_FL_ENTRIES were being mapped but only P2M_FLL_ENTRIES were being
unmapped. The attached patch changes the unmapping to use the same
P2M_FL_ENTRIES macro. I'm not too familiar with this code though so
posting here for review.
I suspect this was not noticed before since most (all?) processes
doing save terminate after the save and are not long-running like
libvirtd.

This change should be backported to relevant earlier trees. -iwj
