    gnttab: deal with status frame mapping race
    
    Once gnttab_map_frame() drops the grant table lock, the MFN it reports
    back to its caller is free to other manipulation. In particular
    gnttab_unpopulate_status_frames() might free it, by a racing request on
    another CPU, thus resulting in a reference to a deallocated page getting
    added to a domain's P2M.
    
    Obtain a page reference in gnttab_map_frame() to prevent freeing of the
    page until xenmem_add_to_physmap_one() has actually completed its acting
    on the page. Do so uniformly, even if only strictly required for v2
    status pages, to avoid extra conditionals (which then would all need to
    be kept in sync going forward).
    
    This is CVE-2021-28701 / XSA-384.
