Hi Edwin,

The immediate reason I didn't take this patch is that it changes the
struct page_info definition.  It also breaks PV save/restore (though I
haven't yet investigated why).

Since we could take the basic HVM save/restore without this, and we were
keen to code into the tree, I left this out for now.  I plan to tidy up
basic HVM save/restore first and then return to PV-on-HVM.

Cheers,

Tim.
