[PATCH V7 net-next 1/7] xen-netback: Move grant_copy_op array back into struct xenvif.

From: Andrew J. Bennieston <hidden>
Date: 2014-04-29 13:27:09
Also in: xen-devel
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest, xen network backend driver · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, Wei Liu, Paul Durrant

From: "Andrew J. Bennieston" <redacted>

This array was allocated separately in commit ac3d5ac2 due to it being
very large, and a struct xenvif is allocated as the netdev_priv part of
a struct net_device, i.e. via kmalloc() but falling back to vmalloc() if
the initial alloc. fails.

In preparation for the multi-queue patches, where this array becomes
part of struct xenvif_queue and is always allocated through vzalloc(),
move this back into the struct xenvif.
