Pkg xen devel - Dec 2012 - Bug#695123: xen-utils-4.1: Missing msi_translate patch

Package: xen-utils-4.1
Version: 4.1.3-5
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
The xen 4.1.3 release misses this 4.2 patch mentioned in this thread:
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-06/msg01909.html
As a result, MSI delivery does not work properly for PVHVM guest.
In my case, PCI devices passthroughed from host does not work properly,
the guest kernel complains about missing interrupt.

I can confirm that the patch fixes the issue and the upstream developer
considers to pick this patch as candidate for next maintenance release:
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-12/msg00155.html

But since debian is approaching another freeze, I'm afraid that the new
release can't make it in time. If you would like to pick up the patch
manually,
please find it in the attachment -- it is already tuned for 4.1.3.

Thanks,
Timothy
