I could panic if I find out that XENFEAT_dom0 is unimplemented but
actually I only get to know if it is available...

It wouldn't work.
Considering that we are certainly not going to backport ARM support to
Xen 4.1, and that both ARM and XENFEAT_dom0 will be present in Xen 4.2,
do we really need to support the Xen unstable changesets between ARM was
introduced and XENFEAT_dom0 appeared?

What happens here on platforms prior to hypervisor changeset 23735?
