Well, naturally I tried doing that first, but due to the follies of statistical
sampling, unfortunately the several patches I looked at on xen-devel didn’t
have the more verbose desc

Sorry about that! Since it’s been a while since I posted a git patch to a
mailing list, I had to figure out what the canonical format for an e-mail with
a patch was, such that I could have a more verbose desc
