Subject[RFC 10/23] xen/biomerge: WORKAROUND always says the biovec are not mergeable
Date
When Linux is using 64K page granularity, every page will be slipt in
multiple non-contiguous 4K MFN.

I'm not sure how to handle efficiently the check to know whether we can
merge 2 biovec with a such case. So for now, always says that biovec are
not mergeable.
