struct gntdev_copy_batch is arguably too large to fit on the kernel stack,

1024 bytes
This changes the code to us a dynamic allocation instead.

I sent this in January, Boris sent an almost identical patch
as http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/xen/devel/414056
but the bug remains present in mainline and linux-next as of
Feb 25.
Could you apply one of the patches before the bug makes it
into v4.5?
David wanted to shrink the structure size instead:
