This fixes the panic caused by deadlocking when grant-table free callbacks are used.
The cause of the recursion is: check_free_callbacks() is always called with the lock gnttab_list_lock held. In turn the callback function is also called with the lock held. Then when the client uses any of the grant reference methods which also attempt the lock the gnttab_list_lock mutex from within the free callback a deadlock happens.
Fix this by making the gnttab_list_lock recursive.
