Well, I'm trying to get a test together - although I don't have webdav
anywhere... I was going to try it via FTP, however I'm hitting another
MM bug in Xen:

This references:
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/1/23/596

It says that should be fixed in 3.15-rc3 (if I understand properly) -
but I'm also hitting that on 3.14.2. Did these changes get ported back
to the 3.14 tree?
This is fixed by 29c7787075 (mm: use paravirt friendly ops for NUMA
hinting ptes) which is tagged for stable but hasn't yet been picked up
for 3.14.y.

You can also work around it by disabling CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING which
doesn't work with Xen PV guests anyway.
Hi David,

Just wondering if there has been any movement in getting this into
3.14.y. I see we've now just hit 3.14.4 with no mention of the patch for
issue.
