Thanks. I'll change the title prefix to 'hw/xen' since it's in hw/ not
target/i386. Please can I have also have a review for
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20076888f6bdf06a65aafc5cf954260965d45b97.camel@infradead.org/

I'll then send these outstanding patches from my tree as a series for
8.1:

David Woodhouse (4):
      hw/xen: Clarify (lack of) error handling in transaction_commit()
      hw/xen: fix off-by-one in xen_evtchn_set_gsi()
      i386/xen: consistent locking around Xen singleshot timers
      hw/xen: prevent guest from binding loopback event channel to itself
