[PATCH 4/8] xen/mmu: Warn against races.
From: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
Date: Thu Dec 30 2010 - 14:51:10 EST
The initial bootup code uses set_phys_to_machine quite a lot, and after
bootup it would be used by the balloon driver. The balloon driver does have
mutex lock so this should not be necessary - but just in case, add
a warning if we do hit this scenario.
