xen/gnttab: Validate input to GNTTABOP_swap_grant_ref xen-unstable c/s 24548:d115844ebfbb introduces a new GNTTABOP to swap grant refs. However, it fails to validate the two refs passed from the guest. The result is that passing out-of-range refs can cause Xen to read past the end of the grant_table->active[] array, and deference whatever it finds. Typically, this results in Xen trying to deference a low pointer and fail with a page-fault. As this hypercall can be issued by an unprivileged guest, this is a Denial of Service against Xen.
