Hi.

Backports are done by requests on the list, cc'd to keir@xen.org who
maintains the -testing repositories.

If the unstable patch applies cleanly, just name its changeset with your
recommendation, but if it is not a trivial backport, it is generally
appreciated if you formulate a patch.

In this case however, it should be trivial, so just name the
xen-unstable changeset.
