Hey Jens,
Please git pull the following branch:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/for-jens-3.8
which has fixes to the blkback that I hope you can push to Linus for 3.8.
The one that is quite vicious is the "xen-blkfront: drop the use of
llist_for_each_entry_safe". It is a fix to re-do an "free-ing" loop - otherwise
we hit a GCC 4.1.1 bug (so RHEL5 based) that turns the loop in an unbound one.
Please pull!
