SeongJae Park 74a852479c xen-blkfront: add a parameter for disabling of persistent grants
Persistent grants feature provides high scalability.  On some small
systems, however, it could incur data copy overheads[1] and thus it is
required to be disabled.  It can be disabled from blkback side using a
module parameter, 'feature_persistent'.  But, it is impossible from
blkfront side.  For the reason, this commit adds a blkfront module
parameter for disabling of the feature.
