I suggest add some tracing to function dom0_init() in xenstored and see
where that function is failing. The two most obvious places were the opening
of those two files in /proc. If they exist then I'm not sure what else could
be going wrong.

Oh, you should be able to cat /proc/xen/ksd_port and get an integer value.
/proc/xen/ksd_kva by contrast gets mmap()ed by xenstored.
