commit 8655fb5f468e85536d4647c9fdd5140005d56d83 Author: Julien Grall <jgrall@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Sat Jun 27 10:55:32 2020 +0100 Commit: Stefano Stabellini <sstabellini@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Fri Jul 10 09:49:24 2020 -0700 pvcalls: Clearly spell out that the header is just a reference A recent thread on xen-devel [1] pointed out that the header was provided as a reference for the specification. Unfortunately, this was never written down in xen.git so for an external user (or a reviewer) it is not clear whether the spec or the header should be followed when there is a conflict. To avoid more confusion, a paragraph is added at the top of the header to clearly spell out it is only provided for reference.
