Input: xen-kbdfront - free grant table entry in xenkbd_disconnect_backend
xenkbd_disconnect_backend doesn't free grant table entry. This bug affects live migration. xenkbd_disconnect_backend uses gnttab_end_foreign_access_ref to handle grant table entry which doesn't really free an entry. Thus every time we do xenkbd_resume, grant table entry increses by one. As an grant table entry occupies 8 bytes, an grant table page has at most 512 entries. Every 512 times we do xenkdb_resume, grant table pages increses by one. After around 3500 times of live migration, grant table pages will increase by 7, causing too many pages to populate and hitting max_pages limit when assigning pages.Thus assign_pages will fail, so will live migration.
