[Xen-devel] [PATCH] domain_create: honour global grant/maptrack frame limits...

[Paul Durrant <pdurrant@xxxxxxxxxx>]

...when their values are larger than the per-domain configured limits.

After mining through commits it is still unclear to me exactly when Xen
stopped honouring the global values, but I really think this commit should
be back-ported to stable trees as it was a behavioural change that can
cause domUs to fail in non-obvious ways.
