I just realized that this a bit of unfortunate. We end up
with on 64-bit with this layout:

{
  0->1 [domid]
  2->7 [nothing]
  8->16 [gpfn]

}

which if one were to do a 32-bit build you would get:
{
 0->1 [domid]
 2->3 [nothing]
 4->7 [gpfn]
}
which means another compat layer in Xen.

So I think it makes sense to modify this to be 32 and 64-bit
clean, something like this:

{
	domid_t	domid;
	u8	pad[6];
	xen_pfn_t gpfn;
	/* xen_pfn_t under 32-bit x86 is 4 bytes, so extend it */
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_32
	__u8	pad1[4];
#endif
}

that way the structure is exactly the same size and the offsets
align.

Mukesh, you OK with that?
