Re: [Xen-devel] Re: [PATCH] xen: mask XSAVE in cpuid since we don't allow guests to use it

[Boris Derzhavets <bderzhavets@xxxxxxxxx>]

disk= [ phy:/dev/sdb5] seems not to be released after PV DomU shutdown.
Hence , second attempt to load DomU gets paused waiting for particular
device. When i reboot xen host, DomU can be loaded again.

Ah, I noticed that too, but I don't see any obvious changes which might
have caused this.  Time to pull out "git bisect" I think.
