Hi Isaku,

  There seems to be something getting freed up that we need.  When I
test this, I get the following (booting a domU):

netconsole: not configured, aborting
Linux video capture interface: v2.00
Xen virtual console successfully installed as tty1
Event-channel device installed.
(XEN) Xen BUG at mm.c:1245
(XEN) FIXME: implement ia64 dump_execution_state()

(XEN) Panic on CPU 5:
(XEN) Xen BUG at mm.c:1245
(XEN) ****************************************

(XEN) Reboot in five seconds...

I tried removing all the __inits and __initdatas this patch added, but
it still happens, so I'd guess we need something that upstream marked as
init.  Thanks,

        Alex
