It's been about 2 years ago that paravirt_ops went upstream, when you told
us that something like this would never happen, that paravirt_ops is
designed so flexibly that it will never hinder the native kernel - and if
it does it will be easy to fix it. Now is the time to fulfill that
promise.
Yep, working on it.
