We thought about it, but then 2.6.38 has so many neat stuff in it that it just seems easier to do it
on top of 2.6.38.

Or better, use git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git #master

According to PVOPS wiki 2.6.32 and 2.6.37 are suppose to be active branches.  Can you back port this patch to both 2.6.32 and 2.6.37 branches?
