Zide Chen 2b35c07857 hv: do EPT mapping only for physical memory backed GPA on pre-launched VMs
Currently for pre-launched VMs, HV intends to do EPT mapping for all GPA
space, which implies that it wastes HPA to back PCI hole and other vE820
entries that are not backed by physical memory.

This patch solves this issue and fixes ve820 entries whose length is not
aligned to 4K, and changes the lowmem entry's start GPA from 1MB to 2MB.

ACRN Hypervisor
###############

The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and
an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on
a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a
reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the
“ACRN Device Model”.

The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on
the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded
device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists
between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN
hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional
domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and
embedded devices.

You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_
website.
