The following series is the Xen patches that comprise
the lastest release of kexec for ia64 Xen. Patches
for Linux-Xen and kexec-tools are posted separately.

All the patches as well as some documentation on building
and running kexec can be found at:

http://www.vergenet.net/linux/kexec/ia64-xen/20070927/

This release addresses all of the issues raised by Alex Williamson,
Kazuhiro Suzuki and Ian Campbell in the previous release. These changes are
noted in the comment preceeding each patch.

This release does not address the secuirity issue relating to the mapping
of EFI-pages. The problem is that the new mappings will be directly
accesasble by VTI domains. Yamahata-san has suggested reserving an RID for
use by EFI. This sounds very promissing and I will investigate it.

On a personal note, I will be on my honeymoon for two weeks
as of Saturday, please excuse the lack of updates during that time.
