Keir,
Thanks for reminder, currently this patch is for PV-ops tree. Later I will

Thanks!

of event notification.
Are these patches against pv_ops? They don't apply to 2.6.18 so I assume so.
In which case you might want to Cc Jeremy as he manages the pv_ops tree. I
can't do anything with them. If you spin versions against 2.6.18 I will
apply them. And don't forget to patch xen-unstable's version of ring.h --
that's the 'master version' of that public header.
