I would remove all references to specific ABIs where possible. Perhaps:
"=item B<max_event_channels=NUMBER>
Maximum number of event channels a guest can use. Use this to limit the
amount of Xen resources the guest may use for event channels.
The default value for this option is 1024 which is sufficient for a
normal guest. Driver or service domains may need more.
Depending on architecture and the support available in the guest, the
guest may be restricted to less than this limit."
