[PATCH 08/10] xen: fix incorrect vcpu_register_vcpu_info hypercall argument

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge
Date: Fri Oct 12 2007 - 17:48:34 EST


The kernel's copy of struct vcpu_register_vcpu_info was out of date,
at best causing the hypercall to fail and the guest kernel to fall
back to the old mechanism, or worse, causing random memory corruption.

[ Stable folks: applies to 2.6.23 ]
