Subject: [GIT PULL] xen: branch for v5.6-rc1

Linus,

Please git pull the following tag:

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip.git for-linus-5.6-rc1-tag

xen: branch for v5.6-rc1

It contains:

- a fix of a bug introduced in 5.5 for the Xen gntdev driver
- a fix of the Xen balloon driver when running on ancient Xen versions
- a patch allowing Xen stubdoms to control interrupt enable flags of
  passed-through PCI cards
- a series for releasing resources in Xen backends under memory pressure


Thanks.

Juergen
