Wait, Xen is not using pc_init_pci_no_kvmclock.  But that's not a
problem, we can expose ACPI info via fw_cfg and then Xen hvmloader can
decide whether to use it or not.  Right now it doesn't, maybe later on
it should.

If Xen is broken, we need to patch pc_xen_hvm_init, but Andreas only
tested isapc not xenfv.  So unless someone reports otherwise, there is
no need to exclude ACPI info from "-M xenpv".

So my first review was wrong, but I still agree with the patch.

Paolo
