Is it possible to get your comments to this patch series
(I would like to thank you Andrei and Konrad for review)?
We need this functionality as Xen community and as Oracle.
Hence, it will be nice to know that we go in good direction.
So, if you think that we should change something please
drop me a line.

I know that you are busy but please, at least, tell us when
you take a look at it.

Daniel
