[Xen-devel] [PATCH] reserve vtd_mem on guest restore

There's need for free vtd_mem more memory for guest with
xen-unstable c/s 17529.  This memory is freed when guest is
created, but is not freed when guest is restored. So restore 
guest fails due  to not enough of memory for guest.

Following patch uses same calculation of memory to free in guest
restore as is in guest creation.
