I don't see that you would anywhere avoid setting up software
log-dirty handling - is that on purpose? If so, is there really a
win from adding PML?

      if ( log_global )
      {
-        /* set l1e entries of P2M table to be read-only. */
+        /*
+         * switch to log dirty mode, either by setting l1e entries of P2M
table

          p2m_change_entry_type_global(d, p2m_ram_rw,
p2m_ram_logdirty);

Or did I miss you changing the behavior of this anywhere (as the
changed comment suggests)?

just found behavior is changed in [11/11]. :-)
Yes.

Thanks,
