Subject: [PATCH] xen-blkfront: prepare request locally, only then put it on
 the shared ring
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Do not reuse data which theoretically might be already modified by the
backend. This is mostly about private copy of the request
(info->shadow[id].req) - make sure the request saved there is really the
one just filled.

This is part of XSA155.
