[Xen-devel] [PATCH v18 01/11] x86/hvm/ioreq: maintain an array of ioreq servers rather than a list

A subsequent patch will remove the current implicit limitation on creation of ioreq servers which is due to the allocation of gfns for the ioreq structures and buffered ioreq ring. It will therefore be necessary to introduce an explicit limit and, since this limit should be small, it simplifies
