[PATCH RFC 05/12] xen-blkfront: remove frame list from blk_shadow

From: Roger Pau Monne
Date: Thu Feb 28 2013 - 05:32:27 EST


We already have the frame (pfn of the grant page) stored inside struct
grant, so there's no need to keep an aditional list of mapped frames
for a specific request. This reduces memory usage in blkfront.
