There are a number of ABI-critical reasons, not least the evtchn_pending
field which Xen needs to write.

I can see what you're trying to do, and it looks fine in principle, but
the commit message isn't remotely accurate.  Remember that you are in
the process of changing the meaning/usage of the xenheap - preexiting
uses conform to the old meaning, where the sole distinction between
domheap and xenheap pages was whether Xen required a virtual mapping or
not.  The answer is "absolutely yes" for the shared info page.
