    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull Xen updates from David Vrabel:
     "Features and fixes:
    
       - Add pvscsi frontend and backend drivers.
       - Remove _PAGE_IOMAP PTE flag, freeing it for alternate uses.
       - Try and keep memory contiguous during PV memory setup (reduces
         SWIOTLB usage).
       - Allow front/back drivers to use threaded irqs.
       - Support large initrds in PV guests.
       - Fix PVH guests in preparation for Xen 4.5"
