Subject: [PATCH v2 0/6] Xen PV on HVM fixes and improvements

Hi all,
this patch series is a collection of fixes and improvements for Linux
running as Xen PV on HVM guest.
Changes to the previous version:

- patch 5 and 6 have been squashed together;

- xen_hvm_spinlock_init has been merged into xen_hvm_smp_prepare_cpus.


The list of patches with diffstat follows:

Stefano Stabellini (6):
      xen: no need to delay xen_setup_shutdown_event for hvm guests anymore
      xen: do not use xen_info on HVM, set pv_info name to "Xen HVM"
      xen-blkfront: handle Xen major numbers other than XENVBD
      xen: make the ballon driver work for hvm domains
      xen: PV on HVM: support PV spinlocks and IPIs
      xen: fix compile issue if XEN is enabled but XEN_PVHVM is disabled
