I would do that, but I'm planning on posting some Xen balloon driver 
patches which depend on at least one of these patches.

I'll drop "hotplug-memory: adding non-section-aligned memory is bad" 
because it was just warnings and it was NACKed.  "hotplug-memory: add 
add_memory_resource()" is just a refactor, and should be a noop as far 
as the existing add_memory() is concerned.

You mean the "paravirt_ops: don't steal memory resources in 
paravirt_disable_iospace"?  That shouldn't have any dependencies.  It's 
the only patch in my queue which even references that file.  Rusty said 
he picked it up too; are you exchanging patches with him?
