xen/9p: use alloc/free_pages_exact()
Commit 5cadd4bb1d7fc9ab201ac14620d1a478357e4ebd upstream. Instead of __get_free_pages() and free_pages() use alloc_pages_exact() and free_pages_exact(). This is in preparation of a change of gnttab_end_foreign_access() which will prohibit use of high-order pages. By using the local variable "order" instead of ring->intf->ring_order in the error path of xen_9pfs_front_alloc_dataring() another bug is fixed, as the error path can be entered before ring->intf->ring_order is being set. By using alloc_pages_exact() the size in bytes is specified for the allocation, which fixes another bug for the case of order < (PAGE_SHIFT - XEN_PAGE_SHIFT). This is part of CVE-2022-23041 / XSA-396.
