Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] XEN 3.4 and blktapctrl
User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/12.17.0.090302
I'll guess that Kevin Wolf's changeset 19349 causes this, by calling
connect_tapdisk() with uninitialised parameter 'minor'. If you build Xen 3.4
yourself you can try reverting this patch with 'hg export 19349 | patch
-Rp1' and rebuild the tools.

Kevin: could you take another look at your patch, please.
