Hey Jens,

Please git pull an update branch to your 'for-4.3/drivers' branch (which
oddly I don't see does not have the previous pull?)

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git 
stable/for-jens-4.3

which has two fixes - one where we use the Xen blockfront EFI driver and
don't release all the requests, the other if the allocation of resources
for a particular state failed - we would go back 'Closing' and assume that
an structure would be allocated while in fact it may not be - and crash.

Please pull!

P.S.
The patches also have 'stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' on them.

There's only one commit in that pull request, the patch from Roger is
already in mainline from the last pull request. I think your mistake is

Hm, indeed I see it now (after doing git pull from non-work machine).

looking at for-4.3/drivers - this branch is defunct as soon as Linus has
pulled the initial bits for 4.3. After that, for-linus is the branch that
carries fixes for the _current_ branch.

Aaaa! That I had no clue about. OK, I will fix my workflow. Do you want
me to repost this basing it on the 'for-linus' branch?

No the current one is fine, it's only a concern if there are other changes in your branch compared to mine. I just got a different diffstat for this one than you listed, so I had to check it more thoroughly.

I have pulled it in.
