Sorry for the confusion. The discussion got continued on xen-devel, and
I was told that cross-posting is a no-no. Find it by searching for this
subject on xen-devel, or start with Message-ID:
<20160829142604.GD27665@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (on xen-devel) , and all
will be clear :-) . Apparently the patch is submitted and "on its
(admittedly slow) way to Linus" according to JBeulich@xxxxxxxx.

This lkml thread contains the relevant patch: 
http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1608.2/03448.html , though the
patch in there did not apply in gentooo-sources-4.7.2 for me, so I had
to do it by hand. That is why I did not have the relevant context
available immediately.
