Pls move that to the vbd structure, and if you feel
especially adventourous, you could modify the
bool flush_support
bool discard_secure
to be 'unsigned int feature_flush:1' ,etc.. as its own
seperate patch and then introduce the
unsigned int feature_grnt_pers:1
flag.

use_pers_gnts and new_pers_gnt? Can you document what the difference

Perhaps 'new_pers_gnts' should be called:
'got_grant'? or 'using_grant' ?

You can declare the 'shared_data' here:
void *shared_data;
and also bvec_data.

Do we need to worry about it spilling over a page? Should we check that
sg>offset + sg->length < PAGE_SIZE ?
Also this would imply that based on the offset (so say it is 3999) that the old data (0->3998)
might be still there - don't know how important that is?
