Juergen Gross 973e5405f2 xen/blkback: don't keep persistent grants too long
Persistent grants are allocated until a threshold per ring is being
reached. Those grants won't be freed until the ring is being destroyed
meaning there will be resources kept busy which might no longer be
used.

Instead of freeing only persistent grants until the threshold is
reached add a timestamp and remove all persistent grants not having
been in use for a minute.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
