Subject: [PATCH] drivers/xen/grant-table.c: Be sure of unsigned value never
 comparing with 0

In grow_gnttab_list(), 'i' is 'unsigned int', and 'nr_glist_frames' may
be 0 because 'nr_grant_frames' may be 0. So 'i' may never be less than
'nr_glist_frames' in failure processing, which cause infinite looping.
