Hi.
This patch is work around for xencomm and the soft lockup message.
However I need help before commit.

- It is necessary to test it before commit with much memory.
  I haven't tested it with much memory because my environment doesn't have
  such huge memory.
- I defined MEMORYOP_MAX_EXTENTS based on the xencomm limitation.
  Howver I'm not sure the value is small enough to avoid the soft lockup
  message because I couldn't produce the message on my environment.
  It is necessary to determine the value with expriments.

Thanks,
