We got an ack from Thomas, so I'm fine with this from a PCI
perspective.  How should it be merged?  Via Xen or PCI?  I'm happy to
merge via PCI, but would also want acks from Juergen for the Xen
piece and Nirmal for the VMD piece.

I have a couple more trivial comments, will respond to those patches.
