It's not clear exactly how early this needs to be but I think it needs to be at least before init_hw() (since that would detect disk devices). I put it first in maininit() since the only dependency is malloc().

Ping?
Sorry for the delay. I'm okay with the patch. If it doesn't need to be at the top of maininit though, I'd prefer to move it down a bit. How about after smm_init?
Sure, Works For Me.

This was somehow dropped during the iterations of the original Xen patches. It's actually harmless at the moment since there are no users of hypercalls but patches are being written to support Xen PV block devices which need this.
It's not clear exactly how early this needs to be but I think it needs to be at least before init_hw() (since that would detect disk devices).
