Hey Linus,
Please git pull the following tag:
git pull git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git
stable/for-linus-3.6-rc0-tag
which has three nice features and various bug-fixes. A nice summary of them is
included
in the git tag. A shorter summary is that two of them are patches mainly for
enterprise machines - to collect MCE data and also offline/online CPUs. Then
there is
performance improvements to minimize the amount of traps done to the hypervisor.
And then there are some little fixes. The biggest one is to make PVonHVM guest
able
to successfully do an kexec 100% instead of "most" of the time - there
were certain
pages that ended up being stamped by the hypervisor after the new kernel was
booted -
the patches fix that.
Here is the diff stat.
