I tried compiling the series, and I am getting the following compilation error:

  CC      arch/x86/xen/mmu_pv.o
arch/x86/xen/mmu_pv.c:2400:22: error: a??tlb_remove_tablea?? undeclared here (not in a function); did you mean a??bus_remove_filea???
  .tlb_remove_table = tlb_remove_table,
                      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                      bus_remove_file
make[4]: *** [arch/x86/xen/mmu_pv.o] Error 1


which I solved by:
diff --git a/arch/x86/xen/mmu_pv.c b/arch/x86/xen/mmu_pv.c
