Pull Xen fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: - Regression fix in xen privcmd fixing a memory leak. - Add Documentation for tmem driver. - Simplify and remove code in the tmem driver. - Cleanups. * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.10-rc1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen: xen: Fixed assignment error in if statement xen/xenbus: Fixed over 80 character limit issue xen/xenbus: Fixed indentation error in switch case xen/tmem: Don't use self[ballooning|shrinking] if frontswap is off. xen/tmem: Remove the usage of '[no|]selfballoon' and use 'tmem.selfballooning' bool instead. xen/tmem: Remove the usage of 'noselfshrink' and use 'tmem.selfshrink' bool instead. xen/tmem: Remove the boot options and fold them in the tmem.X parameters. xen/tmem: s/disable_// and change the logic. xen/tmem: Fix compile warning. xen/tmem: Split out the different module/boot options. xen/tmem: Move all of the boot and module parameters to the top of the file. xen/tmem: Cleanup.
