Not really. The rebases over the last year or two have been done by
Red Hat, not Xensource. By the time the 'official' Xen tree is
updated, it's based on some six month old kernel which is uninteresting.
So sit tight and wait for the Xen team to do their magic.
(Largely the work of Juan Quintela, who succeeds in doing in a month
what takes Xensource half a year to do)
I don't know how Juan handles this but wouldn't it be easier to port xen
during a kernel development cycle and not after the kernel is released?
If there are some last minute changes they wont be that big. I assume
that this will save a lot of time (if not already done).
