Ugh actually no I can't.
Bastian,
Can you re-submit these two patches (and stick on Acked-by Ian on them) and split the "xen: Add alias to autoload backend driver" in three patches: 1) the xen-netback (and copy David Miller) 2) the xen-blkback (and copy Jens Axboe) 3) the xenbus one
and add Acked-by on the two backends from me and from Ian?
That should be five patches total.
I will take the xenbus patches and have them in a 3.1 branch and the backends patches will go to the appropiate maintainer.
Thanks!
