[PATCH] xen/blkfront: speed up purge_persistent_grants()

[Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>]

purge_persistent_grants() is scanning the grants list for persistent
grants being no longer in use by the backend. When having found such a
grant, it will be set to "invalid" and pushed to the tail of the list.

Instead of pushing it directly to the end of the list, add it first to
a temporary list, avoiding to scan those entries again in the main
list traversal. After having finished the scan, append the temporary
list to the grant list.
