Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.6-rc1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen
Pull Xen fix from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"Way back in v3.5 we added a mechanism to populate back pages that were
released (they overlapped with MMIO regions), but neglected to reserve
the proper amount of virtual space for extend_brk to work properly.
Coincidentally some other commit aligned the _brk space to larger area
so I didn't trigger this until it was run on a machine with more than
2GB of MMIO space."
* On machines with large MMIO/PCI E820 spaces we fail to boot b/c
we failed to pre-allocate large enough virtual space for extend_brk.
* tag 'stable/for-linus-3.6-rc1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen:
xen/p2m: Reserve 8MB of _brk space for P2M leafs when populating back.
