[GIT PULL] (xen) stable/for-jens-3.9

[Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk]

Hey Jens,

Please git pull the following branch:

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/for-jens-3.9

which has bug-fixes that did not make it in v3.8. They all are marked as
material for the stable tree as well. There are two bug-fixes for
the code that has been in there for some time (that is the Jan's fix
and one of mine). And there are two bug-fixes for the persistent grant
feature that debuted in v3.8 for xen blk[back|front]end.

Please pull!

Konrad, the tree is against 3.8, so I'm pulling it into my for-linus
branch which will be pushed a bit after the initial for-3.9/drivers goes
out. I can't pull it into the latter without getting a whole lot of
extra changes too.

Right. I ought to have rebased on it something much older <sigh> (say
stable/for-jens-3.8 minus the four patches). Will do it next time.

Hey Jens,

Please git pull the following branch:

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/for-jens-3.9

which has a bunch of fixes. They vary from being able to deal with unknown
requests, overflow in statistics, compile warnings, bug in the error path,
removal of unnecessary logic. There is also one performance fix - which is
to allocate pages for requests when the driver loads - instead of doing it
per request.

That is it. Please pull!
