Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.6-rc0-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen
Pull Xen update from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"Features:
* Performance improvement to lower the amount of traps the hypervisor
has to do 32-bit guests. Mainly for setting PTE entries and
updating TLS descriptors.
* MCE polling driver to collect hypervisor MCE buffer and present
them to /dev/mcelog.
* Physical CPU online/offline support. When an privileged guest is
booted it is present with virtual CPUs, which might have an 1:1 to
physical CPUs but usually don't. This provides mechanism to
offline/online physical CPUs.
Bug-fixes for:
* Coverity found fixes in the console and ACPI processor driver.
* PVonHVM kexec fixes along with some cleanups.
* Pages that fall within E820 gaps and non-RAM regions (and had been
released to hypervisor) would be populated back, but potentially in
non-RAM regions."
* tag 'stable/for-linus-3.6-rc0-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen:
xen: populate correct number of pages when across mem boundary (v2)
xen PVonHVM: move shared_info to MMIO before kexec
xen: simplify init_hvm_pv_info
xen: remove cast from HYPERVISOR_shared_info assignment
xen: enable platform-pci only in a Xen guest
xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches from old kernel
xen/x86: avoid updating TLS descriptors if they haven't changed
xen/x86: add desc_equal() to compare GDT descriptors
xen/mm: zero PTEs for non-present MFNs in the initial page table
xen/mm: do direct hypercall in xen_set_pte() if batching is unavailable
xen/hvc: Fix up checks when the info is allocated.
xen/acpi: Fix potential memory leak.
xen/mce: add .poll method for mcelog device driver
xen/mce: schedule a workqueue to avoid sleep in atomic context
xen/pcpu: Xen physical cpus online/offline sys interface
xen/mce: Register native mce handler as vMCE bounce back point
x86, MCE, AMD: Adjust initcall sequence for xen
xen/mce: Add mcelog support for Xen platform
