When kexec is utilized in a Xen environment, it has an explicit

Thanks for addressing this and thanks doubly for the very comprehensive
changelog.

Applied.


In the commit message, I show this post-patch results table:

The results were:

 Scenario | Xen environment   | non-Xen environment
 1        | fail - see Note 5 | pass
 2        | fail - see Note 5 | pass
 3        | fail - see Note 6 | pass
 4        | pass              | pass
 5        | fail - see Note 6 | pass
 6        | pass              | pass

There is an error here in what I reported, the table should in fact
report a fail for scenario 4 in the non-Xen environment.

If it isn't too late, I think it would be worthwhile to reword
the commit message for these corrections:

<  4        | pass              | pass
