+	<h1>Problem Description:</h1>
+	<p>Grant mapping operations often occur in batch hypercalls, where a
+	number of operations are done in a single hypercall, the success or
+	failure of each one reported to the backend driver, and the backend
+	driver then loops over the results, performing follow-up actions
+	based on the success or failure of each operation.</p>
+	<p>Unfortunately, when running in HVM/PVH mode, the FreeBSD backend
+	drivers mishandle this: Some errors are ignored, effectively implying
+	their success from the success of related batch elements. In other
+	cases, errors resulting from one batch element lead to further batch
+	elements not being inspected, and hence successful ones to not be
+	possible to properly unmap upon error recovery.</p>
+	<h1>Impact:</h1>
+	<p>A malicious or buggy frontend driver may be able to cause resource
+	leaks in the domain running the corresponding backend driver.</p>
