Subject: [GIT PULL] xen: branch for v5.11-rc6

Linus,

Please git pull the following tag:

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip.git for-linus-5.11-rc6-tag

xen: branch for v5.11-rc6

It contains the following fixes:

- A fix for a regression introduced in 5.11 resulting in Xen dom0 having
  problems to correctly initialize Xenstore.

- A fix for avoiding WARN splats when booting as Xen dom0 with
  CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT enabled due to a missing trap handler for the
  #VC exception (even if the handler should never be called).

- A fix for the Xen bklfront driver adapting to the correct but
  unexpected behavior of new qemu.


Thanks.

Juergen
