Ok, this new version is much easier on the eyes.

There's now a bigger collection of various x86_tss_struct fields related 
to the IO-bitmap, and the organization of those fields is still a bit 
idiosyncratic - for example tss->last_sequence doesn't tell us that it's 
bitmap related.

How about the patch below?

It reorganizes all those fields into a new container structure, 'struct 
x86_io_bitmap', adds it as tss.io_bitmap, and uses the prefix to shorten 
and organize the names of the fields:

   tss.last_bitmap         =>  tss.io_bitmap.last_bitmap
   tss.last_sequence       =>  tss.io_bitmap.last_sequence
   tss.io_bitmap_prev_max  =>  tss.io_bitmap.prev_max
   tss.io_bitmap_bytes     =>  tss.io_bitmap.map_bytes
   tss.io_bitmap_all       =>  tss.io_bitmap.map_all

This makes it far more readable, and the local variable references as 
short and tidy:

   iobm->last_bitmap
   iobm->last_sequence
   iobm->prev_max
   iobm->map_bytes
   iobm->map_all

Only build tested.

Thanks,

	Ingo
