Audun,

I clarified the warning on http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Xen_ARM_(PV) 
<http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Xen_ARM_%28PV%29> as it was a little 
confusing.

The original Xen ARM PV port requires a modified Linux kernel, whereas 
ARM support in mainline Xen does not. Many of the newer mobile platform 
have newer ARM CPUs and thus ARM support in mainline Xen should just 
work. We are also seeing pick-up in the mobile and other sectors with 
the new port. This is happening a lot quicker than we thought and there 
are activities and discussions going on to make mainline Xen more 
suitable for various embedded use-cases:
See<http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Category:Android>

Developer Summit BoF Notes : Seeding a Xen + Android / Embedded 
ecosystem BoF]
* 
http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2013-11/msg02536.html [Xen 
for real-time/embedded/automotive]

Of course the old port is still around, but it is unlikley that much 
development effort will go into it.

Best Regards
Lars
