[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 2/5] xenstore: add explicit memory context parameter to get_parent()

[Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>]

Add a parameter to xenstored get_parent() function to explicitly
specify the memory context to be used for allocations. This will make
it easier to avoid memory leaks by using a context which is freed
soon.

When available use a temporary context when calling get_parent(),
otherwise mimic the old behavior by calling get_parent() with the same
argument for both parameters.
