Just in case the various mailing list software ate Matt's messages, he
sent the following:

[PATCH v2 2/4] xen-blkback: fix memory leaks
Tested-by: Matt Rushton <mrushton@...zon.com>
Reviewed-by: Matt Rushton <mrushton@...zon.com>

[PATCH v2 3/4] xen-blkback: fix shutdown race
Tested-by: Matt Rushton <mrushton@...zon.com>
Reviewed-by: Matt Rushton <mrushton@...zon.com>

[PATCH v2 4/4] xen-blkif: drop struct blkif_request_segment_aligned
Tested-by: Matt Rushton <mrushton@...zon.com>

I've separately sent suggestions to Matt on how to setup his mailer to
format messages per list etiquette and how to avoid breaking message
threading.
