I've only compile tested this, but I *think* this does the right thing.

Subject: [PATCH] xen: arm: implement generic multiboot compatibility strings
This causes Xen to accept the more generic names originally proposed by
Andre in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.linaro.announce.boot/326 and
incorporated into the proposal in
http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_ARM_with_Virtualization_Extensions/Multiboot
This will allow bootloaders to not special case Xen (or at least to reduce
the amount which is required).
