The two obvious things I note are the duplicated save/restore functions,
which will simply bitrot, and the additions to evtchn.c. In particular the
hack to relax a validity check in evtchn_bind_interdomain() looks pretty
suspicious. Apart from that there are various spurious white-space and
debug-tracing changes which I assume you would clean up anyway. Those are
just the things that jump out from a quick read through.
