    x86/hvm/ioreq: fix page referencing
    
    The code does not take a page reference in hvm_alloc_ioreq_mfn(), only a
    type reference. This can lead to a situation where a malicious domain with
    XSM_DM_PRIV can engineer a sequence as follows:
    
    - create IOREQ server: no pages as yet.
    - acquire resource: page allocated, total 0.
    - decrease reservation: -1 ref, total -1.
    
    This will cause Xen to hit a BUG_ON() in free_domheap_pages().
    
    This patch fixes the issue by changing the call to get_page_type() in
    hvm_alloc_ioreq_mfn() to a call to get_page_and_type(). This change
    in turn requires an extra put_page() in hvm_free_ioreq_mfn() in the case
    that _PGC_allocated is still set (i.e. a decrease reservation has not
    occurred) to avoid the page being leaked.
    
    This is part of XSA-276.
