After the commit introducing convertion between DMA and guest addresses, all the callers of pfn_to_mfn are expecting to get a GFN (Guest Frame Number). On ARM, all the guests are auto-translated so the GFN is equal to the Linux PFN (Pseudo-physical Frame Number).
The current implementation may return an MFN if the caller is passing a PFN associated to a mapped foreign grant. In pratice, I haven't seen the problem on running guest but we should fix it for the sake of correctness. Correct the implementation by always returning the pfn passed in parameter. A follow-up patch will take care to rename pfn_to_mfn to a suitable name.
