Subject: [GIT PULL] (xen) stable/for-jens-4.2 for rc4

Hey Jens,

There are three bugs that have been found in the xen-blkfront (and
backend). Two of them have the stable tree CC-ed. They have been found
where an guest is migrating to a host that is missing 'feature-persistent'
support (from one that has it enabled). We end up hitting an BUG() in the
driver code.

Please git pull the following branch:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/for-jens-4.2

which has the outlined changes. The branch is based on your
'for-4.2/drivers' branch but it also nicely applies to Linus's tree and
your 'for-linus'.
