+ A flaw was found in the IA32 system call emulation provided
+ on AMD64 and Intel 64 platforms. An improperly validated 64-bit
+ value could be stored in the %RAX register, which could trigger an
+ out-of-bounds system call table access. An untrusted local user
+ could exploit this flaw to run code in the kernel
+ (ie a root privilege escalation). (CVE-2007-4573).

+ is enough for another "bytes", then the ungrant space should be
+ increase. In client, we should update cl_avail_grant only there
