Thank you for your feedback. The changes above are related to the original v9
([1]); in the resend I only rebased the patchset on top of the latest
ARM-related changes. So, something actually changed, mostly in the first
patches, but it was only what was instrumental to let the patchset apply and
compile on top of those ARM-related GIC and p2m changes. I'm sorry if it was not
clear, most probably there is some more appropriate tag for a patchset with such
a purpose.

As of v10, I am working on it, and I have done my best to address the very
important coding style problems you pointed out; the reason why I haven't sent
it yet is that, due to my lack of experience, I am having some fun finding out a
way to pipe up to libxl information about the class of PCI devices. I however
hope to be proposing it very soon.

Thank you,
Arianna
