[1] may not block but is fairly annoying due to [2] when using pulseaudio.

Then I have two smaller MSI fixes [3,4] pending that need not have to
wait for 1.1.1 IMHO.

Finally, I just recalled that writing out 1.0 or older vmstate formats
is still broken [5,6]. Was the plan now to adjust the stable versions
instead?

Please consider these tracing fixes from yesterday:

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/160679/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/160678/

They fix incorrect event numbering for --enable-trace-backend=simple
and an internal error in the ./trace-events file parser.

For block devices in changelog, Block I/O throttling support seems to be missed.

I think http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/159570/ or a patch based on
Paolo's description should be considered for the release.

This trivial change is still missing too:

Thanks for applying this patch.

Please also consider this pull request:

http://marc.info/?l=qemu-devel&m=133727371422338

Be aware that also contains the same "Fix PV-on-HVM" commit, let me
know if you want me to rebase it on rc3.
