This update fixes various Xen issues.

Two security problems were fixed: CVE-2007-5906: Xen allowed virtual guest system users to cause a denial of service (hypervisor crash) by using a debug register (DR7) to set certain breakpoints.

CVE-2007-5907: Xen 3.1.1 does not prevent modification of the CR4 TSC from applications, which allows pv guests to cause a denial of service (crash).

Also the following bugs were fixed: 279062: Timer ISR/1: Time went backwards 286859: Fix booting from SAN 310279: Kernel Panic while booting Xen 338486: xen fails to start when option ‘irq= [ <value> ]’ is given in domU config
