Re: [Xen-devel][PATCH]: Support dynamic resizing of vbds

Pasi,

I am attaching a patch that prints additional information when a vbd is 
resized. Note that on the domu side, the generic block layer already prints 
information on the device that is being resized.

Signed-off-by: K. Y. Srinivasan <ksrinivasan@xxxxxxxxxx>
