An SKB paged fragment can consist of a compound page with order > 0.
However the netchannel protocol deals only in PAGE_SIZE frames.

Handle this in xennet_make_frags by iterating over the frames which
make up the page.

This is the netfront equivalent to 6a8ed462f16b for netback.
Wouldn't you need to be at least a little more conservative here
with respect to resource use: I realize that get_id_from_freelist()
return values were never checked, and failure of
gnttab_claim_grant_reference() was always dealt with via
BUG_ON(), but considering that netfront_tx_slot_available()
doesn't account for compound page fragments, I think this (lack
of) error handling needs improvement in the course of the
change here (regardless of - I think - someone having said that
usually the sum of all pages referenced from an skb's fragments
would not exceed MAX_SKB_FRAGS - "usually" just isn't enough
imo).
