Ian Campbell noticed a missing TLB flush which was causing the USB crashes/failures when booting the pvops dom0 kernel. With that fixed, enabling USB boots reliably and seems to work.

Its quite possible this will also improve matters with ATA/SATA controllers, though I haven't tested it so far.

Anyway, its a significant fix and its worth trying the current pvops patch queue again. Please tell me what you find.

Thanks,
   J
