Xen for noHV now uses an OF tree node to tell Linux it is running in a problem-state partition, rather than the kluge of an MSR bit for this purpose.

Thanks, good stuff.  I assume you mean you either have or haven't a
property in some device node, probably called "xen", at the root
of the tree?

It would really help if someone started to write an OF binding for
the Xen stuff a.s.a.p., history shows that you'll have to keep
kludges for non-interoperable code forever if you don't.

[Oh, and you can't just say "look at the code" -- a spec needs to
be separate from the code.  Don't overdo it, very informal is fine
for now I suppose].
