I have skimmed over, and lack of boot messages appears to be the main
problem.

Do you have a serial PCI card you could put it, (or does your USB port
have debug capabilities) and can you set up a serial console?

As for EFI boot itself, there is a lot which is expected not to work at
the moment, because of the split between Xen and dom0 and who gets to
use bootservices etc, but it is expected to boot and function basically.

Have you tried xen unstable (which is currently 4.4-rc1 + some).  It
might be an interesting datapoint, but I cant offhand recall whether
there is much/anything relevant to EFI boot.
