David Vrabel 0bb599fd30 xen: remove scratch frames for ballooned pages and m2p override
The scratch frame mappings for ballooned pages and the m2p override
are broken.  Remove them in preparation for replacing them with
simpler mechanisms that works.

The scratch pages did not ensure that the page was not in use.  In
particular, the foreign page could still be in use by hardware.  If
the guest reused the frame the hardware could read or write that
frame.

The m2p override did not handle the same frame being granted by two
different grant references.  Trying an M2P override lookup in this
case is impossible.

With the m2p override removed, the grant map/unmap for the kernel
mappings (for x86 PV) can be easily batched in
set_foreign_p2m_mapping() and clear_foreign_p2m_mapping().
