   I removed the warning, it seems like a common thing that para-virt
guests will try to call SAL_GET/CLEAR_STATE_INFO.  Why would we ever
want non-priv guests retrieving and clearing error logs?  We certainly
don't want multiple domains trying to get the logs, which would
logically imply that it should be limited to dom0.

   All the MCA patches seem to be working for me now, so applied these
last fixes (including the CPE interrupt one) and merged the MCA tree
into xen-ia64-unstable.hg.  Please test it out.  Thanks,

        Alex
