[Xen-devel] [PATCH] x86: fix preemptable page type handling

- retain a page reference when PGT_partial is set on a page (and drop
  it when clearing that flag)
- don't drop a page reference never acquired when freeing the page type
  of a page where the allocation of the type got preempted (and never
  completed)
- don't acquire a page reference when allocating the page type of a
  page where freeing the type got preempted (and never completed, and
  hence didn't drop the respective reference)

(Will apply properly only with the previously sent patch using the
preemption flags in domain cleanup applied first.)
