xen/blkfront: always allocate grants first from per-queue persistent grants
This patch partially reverts 3df0e50 ("xen/blkfront: pseudo support for multi hardware queues/rings"). The xen-blkfront queue/ring might hang due to grants allocation failure in the situation when gnttab_free_head is almost empty while many persistent grants are reserved for this queue/ring. As persistent grants management was per-queue since 73716df ("xen/blkfront: make persistent grants pool per-queue"), we should always allocate from persistent grants first.
