as I just realized you already committed these patches - wouldn't it
make sense to allow for some reviewing/discussion at least for larger
batches like this? I would really have wanted the Linux side issues I
already pointed out fixed before they go in, and lacking a general
description of the approach taken I didn't even take a closer look at
the Xen side changes (but during the brief check I did, I think I
spotted at least one problem already).
