Jan, Andrew? Indeed. I'm in the process of making a patch. Jan

virt_to_maddr() is using the hardware page-table walk instructions to translate a virtual address to physical address. The function should only be called on virtual address mapped. _end points past the end of Xen binary and may not be mapped when the binary size is page-aligned. This means virt_to_maddr() will not be able to do the translation and therefore crash Xen. Note there is also an off-by-one issue in this code, but the panic will trump that. Both issues can be fixed by using _end - 1 in the check.

Jan, Andrew? This could be reached by a domain via XEN_SYSCTL_page_offline_op. However, the operation is not security supported (see XSA-77). So we are fine here.
