Thanks, applied to the kvm-ppc-next tree.

Avi, could you please pull my tree asap? That breakage is pretty bad and all my fault :(. It might be good if we could have a stable update for that particular patch as well. Should I add a stable tag in the patch description for that?

Done.

Please do it yourself (active trees are 2.6.35 and 2.6.32), since we
have no way to test it. Wait for it to be merged in linux-2.6.git,
then send the patch (specifying which kernel it applies to) to
stable@kernel.org. 

Ah, there is no need to backport it, the code is not in linux-2.6.git.

Ah, thanks for the hint there. So I'll manage stable parts for kvm-ppc myself and do not go through your stable queue in general? Sounds good to me, just want to verify.

It didn't make it there yet? Interesting. Seems like pretty long delays between kvm.git and linux-2.6.git then. That code is months old :). That makes this matter a lot easier though. Thanks for checking before I emberass myself :).

Patches merged to kvm.git await the next merge window, so up to a three 
months delay.  Security and recent regression fixes go straight in.
