Merge tag 'for-linus-5.6-rc1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip
Pull xen updates from Juergen Gross:
- fix a bug introduced in 5.5 in the Xen gntdev driver
- fix the Xen balloon driver when running on ancient Xen versions
- allow Xen stubdoms to control interrupt enable flags of
passed-through PCI cards
- release resources in Xen backends under memory pressure
* tag 'for-linus-5.6-rc1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip:
xen/blkback: Consistently insert one empty line between functions
xen/blkback: Remove unnecessary static variable name prefixes
xen/blkback: Squeeze page pools if a memory pressure is detected
xenbus/backend: Protect xenbus callback with lock
xenbus/backend: Add memory pressure handler callback
xen/gntdev: Do not use mm notifiers with autotranslating guests
xen/balloon: Support xend-based toolstack take two
xen-pciback: optionally allow interrupt enable flag writes
