This patch series changes the grant table locking to
a more fain grained locking protocol. The result is
a performance boost measured with blkfront/blkback.
Document the locking protocol.

v3:
  * Addressed gnttab_swap_grant_ref() comment from Andrew Cooper
v2:
  * Add arm part per request from Julien Grall
