[Xen-devel] [GIT PULL] xen-netfront driver updates for 2.6.36



 Hi Dave,

Here's a git branch with some updates to the Xen netfront driver, which add a new "smartpoll" mode to the netfront backend protocol, which is basically equivalent to interrupt mitigation. They've been in linux-next for a week or so.

Do you want to take this via the net tree, or are you OK with me submitting them directly?

Thanks,
    J
