[PATCH 5.4 30/33] xen/pvcalls: use alloc/free_pages_exact()

From: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>

Commit b0576cc9c6b843d99c6982888d59a56209341888 upstream.

Instead of __get_free_pages() and free_pages() use alloc_pages_exact()
and free_pages_exact(). This is in preparation of a change of
gnttab_end_foreign_access() which will prohibit use of high-order
pages.

This is part of CVE-2022-23041 / XSA-396.
