Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] Add hugetlb support for PV

Here is a set of small patches that enables hugetlb on PV machines. They are against xen-unstable and linux-2.6.18-xen.

The patches are specifically for x86_64.

I originally had these patches working back in May, but recently for some reason my machine now refuses to boot the baseline xen-unstable, so I've been unable to verify them. However, they should still work.

Comments, bug reports, and suggestions are welcome.
