The problem with this patch, and Raj's previous one apparently :-), is
that there is no filtering of object paths returned via upcalls to cimom
for instance names of the associated thing.  For example, in
ReferenceNames() in Xen_HostedMemory.c we make an upcall to get all
instances of CIM_Memory when it is the target class.  But Xen_Memory is
a subclass of CIM_Memory so you get instances of Xen_Memory (which is
the source class) and associate it with itself or other instances of
Xen_Memory for other domains.  If I list associations of Xen_Memory for
domain 1 using this patch, I get a Xen_HostedMemory association for each
Xen_Memory object produced by other domains.

Make sense?  I'm quite tired now so this may be a smoked explanation
:-).

Thanks,
Jim
