Any chance the efi=no-rs regression can be added to the list? I understand
that I'm still on the hook to provide more details (I promise to do it on Fri
when I get to my lab to actually have a serial console on all these boxes).
At the same time this is a pretty serious regression for an entire class of
devices where Xen was perfectly happy even during RC1.
