* Functionality tested:
xl
xl save
xl restore


* Comments:

4.4.rc2 does not build on CentOS release 5.10:

Need

* 407a3c0 (origin/staging) compat/memory: fix build with old gcc

and a newer upstream QEMU then qemu-xen-4.4.0-rc1

* b97307e (HEAD, tag: qemu-xen-4.4.0-rc1, dummy) xen_disk: mark ioreq as mapped before unmapping in error case
*   d84e452 Merge remote branch 'origin/stable-1.6' into xen-staging-master-9
|\
| * 62ecc3a (tag: v1.6.1) Update VERSION for 1.6.1 release

However "xl restore -V /big/xl-save/centos-6.4-x86_64.0.save" looks to work fine.

2nd time the unpause failed with:
[root@dcs-xen-54 ~]# xl unpause 17

Not sure if this is expected or not.
