From: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com>
Subject: gnttab: add preemption check to gnttab_release_mappings()

A guest may die with many grant mappings still in place, or simply with
a large maptrack table. Iterating through this may take more time than
is reasonable without intermediate preemption (to run softirqs and
perhaps the scheduler).

Move the invocation of the function to the section where other
restartable functions get invoked, and have the function itself check
for preemption every once in a while. Have it iterate the table
backwards, such that decreasing the maptrack limit is all it takes to
convey restart information.

In domain_teardown() introduce PROG_none such that inserting at the
front will be easier going forward.

This is part of CVE-2021-28698 / XSA-380.
