Hans de Goede	f6f9885b05	virt: vbox: Add vbg_req_free() helper function ... This is a preparation patch for fixing issues on x86_64 virtual-machines with more then 4G of RAM, atm we pass __GFP_DMA32 to kmalloc, but kmalloc does not honor that, so we need to switch to get_pages, which means we will not be able to use kfree to free memory allocated with vbg_alloc_req. While at it also remove a comment on a vbg_alloc_req call which talks about Windows (inherited from the vbox upstream cross-platform code).
