Subject: [GIT PULL] (xen) stable/for-jens-3.14

Hey Jens,

Please git pull the following branch:

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip.git stable/for-jens-3.14

which is based off v3.13-rc6. If you would like me to rebase it on
a different branch/tag I would be more than happy to do so.

The patches are all bug-fixes and hopefully can go in 3.14.

They deal with xen-blkback shutdown and cause memory leaks
as well as shutdown races. They should go to stable tree and if you
are OK with I will ask them to backport those fixes.

There is also a fix to xen-blkfront to deal with unexpected state
transition. And lastly a fix to the header where it was using the
__aligned__ unnecessarily.

Please pull!
