The mapping interface can only be used by x86 PV guests.

Tracebuffer works on Arm... The support was added a couple of years ago using the foreign mapping interface.


This can and should be fixed by changing to an acquire_resource() based
interface, which is compatbile with x86 PVH and ARM dom0's, but until this
happens, don't give the impression of this feature being useable elsewhere.
