Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.6-rc1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen

Pull Xen fix from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
 "Way back in v3.5 we added a mechanism to populate back pages that were
  released (they overlapped with MMIO regions), but neglected to reserve
  the proper amount of virtual space for extend_brk to work properly.

  Coincidentally some other commit aligned the _brk space to larger area
  so I didn't trigger this until it was run on a machine with more than
  2GB of MMIO space."

 * On machines with large MMIO/PCI E820 spaces we fail to boot b/c
   we failed to pre-allocate large enough virtual space for extend_brk.

* tag 'stable/for-linus-3.6-rc1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen:
  xen/p2m: Reserve 8MB of _brk space for P2M leafs when populating back.
