Xen devel - Jul 2005 - Grant-Table Enabled netif?

Earlier this month there was a patch posted for switching the network
frontend/backend drivers to using grant tables.  The patch won''t apply
cleanly to the current tree.  Is there an updated patch available?  Any
word on how it works, or when it might be merged into the mainline?

I think we probably want to get it included this week.

There''s a performance penalty associated with it on small packets we
wanted to investigate, but I think its more important we just get it in
and fix it up next week.
