Depends what you mean by "enough", it adds it to the _libxl_ API, which is
sufficient for the patch to be useful but it doesn't actually cause the
option to be available to users of xl via a cfg file, which arguably it
should.

To make it available to xl users patches to tools/libxl/xl_cmdimpl.c would
be needed (plus docs changes)
