Peter,
I stuck this and some of the other in this thread on 'stable/bug-fixes-rc3' (git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git). But before I send them to Linus to pull I need your OK? Would it be OK if I stuck your Ack on the patch?
Or you could take this patch (the one I stuck in my tree has the description a bit modified so I recommend that one).
Thanks, Konrad
