I've added the domain parameter to notify_via_xen_event_channel() as you
suggested since it is only used in a couple of places.

That is the way it is supposed to work, but there seems to be a bit of a
disconnect between grant-table code and the driver mods to handle the errors.
The driver mods expect a new error code GNTST_eagain, but the grant_table code
returns ENOENT in a couple of places. There were also a couple of
"GNTxxx_can_fail" flags added to grant-table interface, but they are unused. So
things don't look quite finished.
