 The problem is that we map xenoprof buffer for the passive hvm guest
 into dom0 and not into the guest since dom0 collects the profile
samples
 for the passive guest. The code was checking the mode for the guest
which is
 irrelevant; it should check the mode for dom0 (or coordinator) which
is
 mapping the buffer.
 With the provided patch, "shadow_mode_translate()" should now be
false,
 as expected, since it is now checking dom0 mode.

 Good. Nice to hear that
