Then you'll be happy to here that this functionality is moving
outside Xen and into a 'driver domain' in the new IO model.

I'm confident we can move this functionality into driver domains
without loosing much performance. Stay tuned.

I'd love to see this happen, but I think even the complexity of
something simple like Xen is beyond what current verification
tools can cope with. In the meantime, I think if we just stare at
the code really hard...
