Thanks Ian, I don't have the list. I looked into

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux%2Fkernel%2Fgit%2Fjeremy%2Fxen.git&a=search&h=xen%2Fstable-2.6.32.x&st=commit&s=shared

I see couple of fixes that were committed for shared interrupts +
passthrough. I am not sure however it is confined to those commits. If I can
get a list of commits to fix shared interrupts I can take a look at patching
those into xcp source.

Thanks
