privcmd: MMAPBATCH: Fix error handling/reporting

Browse source

On error IOCTL_PRIVCMD_MMAPBATCH is expected to set the top nibble of
the effected MFN and return 0. Currently it leaves the MFN unmodified
and returns the number of failures. Therefore:

- reimplement remap_domain_mfn_range() using direct
  HYPERVISOR_mmu_update() calls and small batches. The xen_set_domain_pte()
  interface does not report errors and since some failures are
  expected/normal using the multicall infrastructure is too noisy.
- return 0 as expected
- writeback the updated MFN list to mmapbatch->arr not over mmapbatch,
  smashing the caller's stack.
- remap_domain_mfn_range can be static.

With this change I am able to start an HVM domain.
