Yes, i386's e820.c is a 2.6.20 addition, which I followed in our Xen
port. But I assume the patch is not likely to be applied to -unstable
anyway, because of it touching a few files not in the sparse tree
(unless Keir feels otherwise, or if your iommu stuff will have a strict
dependency on this). The primary intention is to post the non-Xen
parts to kernel.org and pick up when it got merged.
