Hi Tristan, when you send patches like this that impact all the
architectures, could you please:
1. Include all architectures in the same patch. Do not just change x86
and omit IA64 and PowerPC. That way you won't break the build, and all
the code can be evaluated in the same email.
2. CC xen-ppc-devel as a heads-up.

Thanks!
