I meant right above the change that you made. Should it also be replaced
with XEN_PAGE_MASK? (Sorry for being unclear.)

 ==>     ret = xen_remap_domain_gfn_array(st->vma, st->va & PAGE_MASK,
gfnp, nr,
                                         (int *)gfnp, st->vma->vm_page_prot,
                                         st->domain, cur_pages);

        /* Adjust the global_error? */
        if (ret != nr) {
                if (ret == -ENOENT)
                        st->global_error = -ENOENT;
                else {
                        /* Record that at least one error has happened. */
                        if (st->global_error == 0)
                                st->global_error = 1;
                }
        }
        st->va += PAGE_SIZE * nr;
        st->index += nr;
