I think I generally backed off on patching init functions and the like. Are these really the only ones which need adjustment? I bet things like
the descriptor functions could be indirect/private with very little impact.

Perhaps, but I'd rather not split hairs on it just yet - I actually have no idea exactly which paravirt-ops will be needed, and so far, my conclusions have led me to believe that a fare bit more than the obvious paravirt-ops need to be available to modules. So I would rather just split off pure init functions, which really have no business being exported to modules.
