On a related note having this in stable/longterm (including 2.6.32.y)
seems like a good idea? (it was already in the 3.0 baseline)
commit 4352b47ab7918108b389a48d2163c9a4c2aaf139
Author: Marek Marczykowski <marmarek@mimuw.edu.pl>
Date: Tue May 3 12:04:52 2011 -0400
xen-blkfront: fix data size for xenbus_gather in blkfront_connect
barrier variable is int, not long. This overflow caused another variable
override: "err" (in PV code) and "binfo" (in xenlinux code -
drivers/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c). The later caused incorrect device
flags (RO/removable etc).
