The patch titled Xen-paravirt: allow paravirt backend to select PGD allocation alignment has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was xen-paravirt-allow-paravirt-backend-to-select-pgd-allocation-alignment.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Xen-paravirt: allow paravirt backend to select PGD allocation alignment From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xxxxxxxx> Xen requires pgds to be page-aligned, so make this a parameter which can be set in the paravirt_ops structure.
