Not that I oppose to this, but I've assumed that you would introduce an option to fallback to the previous behavior where Xen would just assume extended space to be accessible. I'm fine with this, just assumed it would be a proper fallback to the previous behavior (which doesn't make much sense as it's partially bogus when used with vPCI). Regards, Roger.
