[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xen: allocate gntdev_copy_batch dynamically



struct gntdev_copy_batch is arguably too large to fit on the kernel stack,
and we get a warning about the stack usage in gntdev_ioctl_grant_copy:

drivers/xen/gntdev.c:949:1: error: the frame size of 1240 bytes is larger than 
1024 bytes

This changes the code to us a dynamic allocation instead.

This is a regression against v4.4, found with ARM randconfig testing.
