Subject: [PATCH] xen/gntdev.c: Mark pages as dirty

There seems to be a bug in the original code when gntdev_get_page()
is called with writeable=true then the page needs to be marked dirty
before being put.

To address this, a bool writeable is added in gnt_dev_copy_batch, set
it in gntdev_grant_copy_seg() (and drop `writeable` argument to
gntdev_get_page()) and then, based on batch->writeable, use
set_page_dirty_lock().

Fixes: a4cdb556cae0 (xen/gntdev: add ioctl for grant copy)
