Not yet. The interface exposed to the guest is very similar to PVH, but
instead of being a PV(H) guest from Xen's point of view, this is a HVM
guest with emulated devices disabled. Note also that the guest kernel
entry point is different from PVH, as is the startup of APs.
Instead of setting pvh=1 in the config file the following options are used:
builder="hvm"
device_model_version="none"
