I don't see any changes to io/blkif.h in this patch, is something missing?
Also you use XENBUS_MAX_RING_PAGES which AFAICT it's not defined anywhere.

You are greatly increasing the buffer of free (ballooned) pages.
Possibly making it 32 times bigger than it used to be, is this really
needed?

This should be made a member of xen_blkif and set dynamically, or else
we are just wasting memory if the frontend doesn't support multipage
rings. We seem to be doing this for a bunch of features, but allocating
32 times the needed amount of requests (if the frontend doesn't support
multipage rings) seems too much IMHO.

I would add a new macro rather than reusing one which might change
(BLKBACK_RINGREF_LEN?).

from here. Isn't the previous location suitable anymore?
Also, if BLK_RING_SIZE < BLK_MAX_RING_SIZE you are overwriting the
