switch_to_super_page() assumes the memory range it's working on is aligned
to the target large page level. Unfortunately, __domain_mapping() doesn't
take this into account when using it, and will pass unaligned ranges
ultimately freeing a PTE range larger than expected.
Take for example a mapping with the following iov_pfn range [0x3fe400,
0x4c0600), which should be backed by the following mappings:
iov_pfn [0x3fe400, 0x3fffff] covered by 2MiB pages
iov_pfn [0x400000, 0x4bffff] covered by 1GiB pages
iov_pfn [0x4c0000, 0x4c05ff] covered by 2MiB pages
Under this circumstance, __domain_mapping() will pass [0x400000, 0x4c05ff]
to switch_to_super_page() at a 1 GiB granularity, which will in turn
free PTEs all the way to iov_pfn 0x4fffff.
Mitigate this by rounding down the iov_pfn range passed to
switch_to_super_page() in __domain_mapping()
to the target large page level.
Additionally add range alignment checks to switch_to_super_page.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
