very small patch to prepare comming soon patches on ia64.

Firstly, it belongs on the ia64-devel list and in the ia64-devel tree.

I'm beginning to split out the arch-neutral changes we've made for PPC and intend to submit those individually to xen-devel so that each can be discussed as usual. Then once the changes we need are in, we can then drop in the whole xen/arch/ppc directory.

With Tristan's patch, which is to arch-neutral code, you seem to prefer it be part of the ia64 tree which you'll then pull later. What if you don't like some of their changes? Do you give them feedback only after they ask you to pull?

In general I assumed that patches that affect arch-neutral code should be submitted to xen-devel; is that not the case?
