Hi Michael,

thanks for putting this together. Unfortunately, I was on holiday during
the patch round up for 2.6.1

I additionally have the following 5 patches in case you want or need to
release a 2.6.1.1 or 2.6.2:

bd9f480 ui: fix refresh of VNC server surface
7c509d1 virtio: decrement vq->inuse in virtqueue_discard()
700f26b virtio: recalculate vq->inuse after migration
4c23084 net: limit allocation in nc_sendv_compat
bf97c17 iscsi: pass SCSI status back for SG_IO

The virtio thing is important because live migration is broken without
the fix as  86cc089 is in 2.6.1.

Thanks,
Peter
