xen-netback: fix guest-receive-side array sizes
The sizes chosen for the metadata and grant_copy_op arrays on the guest receive size are wrong; - The meta array is needlessly twice the ring size, when we only ever consume a single array element per RX ring slot - The grant_copy_op array is way too small. It's sized based on a bogus assumption: that at most two copy ops will be used per ring slot. This may have been true at some point in the past but it's clear from looking at start_new_rx_buffer() that a new ring slot is only consumed if a frag would overflow the current slot (plus some other conditions) so the actual limit is MAX_SKB_FRAGS grant_copy_ops per ring slot. This patch fixes those two sizing issues and, because grant_copy_ops grows so much, it pulls it out into a separate chunk of vmalloc()ed memory.
