We intend to maintain the source for the unmodified drivers separately in our source tree. The idea is that this will track the official xen source tree; we would apply the patch to target this source for a particular unmodified guest target. This would eliminate the need to carry the compatibility baggage in the pristine unmodified driver code. Regards, K.
