the one in tip and linus's tree is
---
-v7u2: update changelog and comments, and clear more fields for sentinel.
     Update swiotlb autoswitch off patch.
     Fix crash with xen PV guest with 2G.
---

and it fixes xen crash that you reported with v7u1, and you tested
that add-on patch
fix_xen_2g.patch with v7u1.
and I fold the addon patch into offending patch in v7u2.


Thanks

Yinghai
