Sorry about that. My fear was about migration. We would have had 2 virt
3.0 machine models not supporting the same features. While bisecting
migration we could have had the source using the high mem ECAM and the
destination not supporting it. So I preferred to avoid this trouble by
merging the 2 features in one patch. However I may have kept your R-b
restricting its scope to the ECAM stuff.

Thanks
