I know and it's not my decision. But my problems on TSC skew disappeared 
only
by using a combination of recent version pulled at approximately the 
same time. 

You might argue that cpufreq=dom0-kernel moves functionality that should 
belong
to xen into the Dom0 kernel. Yes, you're right. From that point of view 
I have
nothing to put in the balance.

BR,
Carsten.

As I've said so many times, the kernel version and Xen version are *not*
tied. We don't do kernel releases tied to Xen versions, at all.
