Hello,

I have a minor problem with ib_mthca driver in linux with Xen in DomU.

If I keep ib_mthca driver in kernel while shutting down the DomU, the next
start of the DomU resets the machine.

Trivial fix is possible: either to rmmod ib_mthca before shutting down the
DomU or set .shutdown section to the same value as the .remove section in
pci_driver structure.

Are you willing apply a patch that sets .shutdown in the mainline of IB driver
in Linux? Or is it something that should be fixed by Xen guys?
