Since 3.12 doesn't seem to include 1401c00e59ea ("xen/gntdev: convert
priv->lock to a mutex"), this shouldn't be applied as priv->lock is
actually a spinlock.  So, you'll need to pick 1401c00e59ea or backport
this patch using the appropriate locking directives.  Not sure what's
the best solution.  Maybe Marek or David can help...?

Cheers,
