[PATCH 1/2] xen/gntdev: replace global limit of mapped pages by limit per call

[Juergen Gross]

Today there is a global limit of pages mapped via /dev/xen/gntdev set
to 1 million pages per default. There is no reason why that limit is
existing, as total number of foreign mappings is limited by the
hypervisor anyway and preferring kernel mappings over userspace ones
doesn't make sense.

Additionally checking of that limit is fragile, as the number of pages
to map via one call is specified in a 32-bit unsigned variable which
isn't tested to stay within reasonable limits (the only test is the
value to be <= zero, which basically excludes only calls without any
mapping requested). So trying to map e.g. 0xffff0000 pages while
already nearly 1000000 pages are mapped will effectively lower the
global number of mapped pages such that a parallel call mapping a
reasonable amount of pages can succeed in spite of the global limit
being violated.

So drop the global limit and introduce per call limit instead.
