Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.6-rc7-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen
Pull a Xen fix from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: "It is a bug-fix when we run the initial PV guest on a AMD K8 machine and have CONFIG_AMD_NUMA enabled and detect the NUMA topology from the Northbridge. We end up in the situation where the initial domain gets too much information and gets confused and crashes - the fix is to restrict the domain to get the information - and we do it by just disabling NUMA on the PV guest (the hypervisor is still able to do its proper NUMA allocations of guests). It is OK to disable the PV guest from accessing NUMA data as right now we do not inject any NUMA node information to the PV guests. When we do get to that point, then this patch will have to be reverted." * Disable PV NUMA support as we do not do anything with it (yet) and it can cause bootup crashes on certain AMD machines. * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.6-rc7-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen: xen/boot: Disable NUMA for PV guests.
