To add to the above, linux seems to keep the v1 code and probe for it.

    xen: select grant interface version
    
    Grant v2 will be needed in cases where a frame number in the grant
    table can exceed 32 bits. For PV guests this is a host feature, while
    for HVM guests this is a guest feature.
    
    So select grant v2 in case frame numbers can be larger than 32 bits
    and grant v1 else.
    
    For testing purposes add a way to specify the grant interface version
    via a boot parameter.
