[PATCH v3] xen/grant-table: correctly initialize grant table version 1
Commit 85ff6acb075a484780b3d763fdf41596d8fc0970 (xen/granttable: Grant
tables V2 implementation) changed the GREFS_PER_GRANT_FRAME macro from
a constant to a conditional expression. The expression depends on
grant_table_version being appropriately set. Unfortunately, at init
time grant_table_version will be 0. The GREFS_PER_GRANT_FRAME
conditional expression checks for "grant_table_version == 1", and
therefore returns the number of grant references per frame for v2.
This causes gnttab_init() to allocate fewer pages for gnttab_list, as
a frame can old half the number of v2 entries than v1 entries. After
gnttab_resume() is called, grant_table_version is appropriately
set. nr_init_grefs will then be miscalculated and gnttab_free_count
will hold a value larger than the actual number of free gref entries.
If a guest is heavily utilizing improperly initialized v1 grant
tables, memory corruption can occur. One common manifestation is
corruption of the vmalloc list, resulting in a poisoned pointer
derefrence when accessing /proc/meminfo or /proc/vmallocinfo:
[ 40.770064] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000200200001407
[ 40.770083] IP: [<ffffffff811a6fb0>] get_vmalloc_info+0x70/0x110
[ 40.770102] PGD 0
[ 40.770107] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
[ 40.770114] CPU 10
This patch introduces a static variable, grefs_per_grant_frame, to
cache the calculated value. gnttab_init() now calls
gnttab_request_version() early so that grant_table_version and
grefs_per_grant_frame can be appropriately set. A few BUG_ON()s have
been added to prevent this type of bug from reoccurring in the future.

Changes since v1:
* introduced a new gnttab_setup() function and moved all of the
initialization code from gnttab_resume() there.
Changes since v2:
* moved the "Grant tables using version %d layout." message back to
gnttab_request_version()
* rebased on v3.8-rc3
