Subject: [GIT PULL] (xen) stable/for-linus-3.5-rc2-tag

Hey Linus,

Please pull my tag:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/for-linus-3.5-rc2-tag

which has accumulated some good bug-fixes. The tag itself has the description - which
I am copying here:

Five bug-fixes:
 - When booting as PVHVM we would try to use PV console - but would not validate
   the parameters causing us to crash during restore b/c we re-use the wrong event
   channel.
 - When booting on machines with SR-IOV PCI bridge we didn't check for the bridge
   and tried to use it.
 - Under AMD machines would advertise the APERFMPERF resulting in needless amount
   of MSRs from the guest.
 - A global value (xen_released_pages) was not subtracted at bootup when pages
   were added back in. This resulted in the balloon worker having the wrong
   account of how many pages were truly released.
 - Fix dead-lock when xen-blkfront is run in the same domain as xen-blkback.


Please pull!
