I am proposing this patch for 2.6.40. This is an RFC at this point.

The git tree for this specific patch is
        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git 
devel/xen-blkback-v3.squashed

(the full tree is devel/xen-blkback-v3)

Please take a look at the patch. I know that I need to rewrite the description
to have more details for the upstream community - and that will be shortly 
supplied.

Any thoughts on what I should address/remove/augment/etc would be appreciated. 
And whether
the code has any obvious pitfalls?

The code was originally lifted from 2.6.18, then ported to 2.6.32, and now I 
have backported
it to 2.6.38/.39. scripts/checkpatch.pl had been applied and also some 
re-ordering of the code
has been done to make it easier to read.
