RE: [GIT/PATCH 0/5] Re: [Xen-devel] unfair servicing of DomU vbd requests

Thanks James.
Patch applied and crash log attached.
 
I've been able to merge the code accrording to Ian post on
http://lists.colo.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2011-03/msg00225.html
 
But unfortunately, the starting of 24HVMS become rather slow, and
after some period of time, whole Host stop responding.
It takes some more time to find what is going on.
