xen: efficiently support a holey p2m table
When using sparsemem and memory hotplug, the kernel's pseudo-physical address space can be discontigious. Previously this was dealt with by having the upper parts of the radix tree stubbed off. Unfortunately, this is incompatible with save/restore, which requires a complete p2m table. The solution is to have a special distinguished all-invalid p2m leaf page, which we can point all the hole areas at. This allows the tools to see a complete p2m table, but it only costs a page for all memory holes. It also simplifies the code since it removes a few special cases.
