ARM guests are assimilated to HVM guest on ARM. The current
implementation is assuming a 1:1 mapping which is only true for DOM0 
and
may not be at all in the future.

Furthermore, all the helpers but arbitrary_virt_to_machine are used in
x86 specific code (or only compiled for).

The helper arbitrary_virt_to_machine is only used in PV specific code.
Therefore we should never call the function.

Add a BUG() in this helper and drop all the others.

                               ^ "However" doesn't make sense here from an

"English grammar" :-P

Sorry. What I really meant to say was that "assimilated" doesn't make sense
in this context either. I think maybe what was meant is "ARM guests are
always HVM".

Ian.
