While this generally is most important to be taken care of in the new kernel (which usually would be a native one), it still seems desirable to also address this problem in Xen so that (a) the problem doesn't bite Xen when used as a secondary emergency kernel and (b) an attempt is being made to save un-fixed secondary kernels from running into said problem. Based on a Linux patch from suresh.b.siddha@intel.com.
