For my purposes, suspend/resume/migrate isn't required. But I might need ballooning. Would I be able to take the balloon driver from 2.6.18.8 and use it in those new trees? The new tree seems to have all the hypercalls and defines the increase_reservation/decrease_reservation op codes. I can add the stub code for these calls.

I have pending patches for balloon support in x86.git (http://people.redhat.com/mingo/x86.git/README)

(I'm not sure what you mean by "allow all hypercalls"; do you mean "all features"?)

I was thinking along the lines of grant hypercalls for mapping another domU's grants. HVM can't let me do that. But I need to be able to do this for my work.

If you have a kernel driver, then you can use those hypercalls.
