Thank 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 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).
