As for this specific crash itself,  In the case of an early error path,
p2m->root can be NULL in p2m_teardown(), in which case
free_domheap_pages() will fall over in a heap.  This patch should
resolve it.

@@ -1408,7 +1411,8 @@ void p2m_teardown(struct domain *d)
     while ( (pg = page_list_remove_head(&p2m->pages)) )
         free_domheap_page(pg);

-    free_domheap_pages(p2m->root, P2M_ROOT_ORDER);
+    if ( p2m->root )
+        free_domheap_pages(p2m->root, P2M_ROOT_ORDER);

     p2m->root = NULL;

I would be tempted to suggest making free_domheap_pages() tolerate NULL
pointers, except that would only be a safe thing to do if we assert that
the order parameter is 0, which won't help this specific case.
