Public bug reported:

I have an Ubuntu 20.04 Server running Xen as a Dom0.  It's worked fun,
but I recently rebooted and the error below appeared

(XEN) ELF: not an ELF binary
   (XEN)
   (XEN) ****************************************
   (XEN) Panic on CPU 0:
   (XEN) Could not set up DOM0 guest OS
   (XEN) ****************************************
   (XEN)
   (XEN) Reboot in 5 seconds...

The LTS release is the same as before, no distribution upgrade.  Just a
new kernel was installed causing the failure.  I tried the extract-
vmlinux but I think I might be missing some decompression software as it
did not work.

In the end I uninstalled the newer kernels, leaving my last good kernel.
This forced Xen to boot into that (vmlinuz-5.11.0-43-generic) which
works perfectly.

It's not great having to run an old version and being forced to run
extract-vmlinux (If it worked, which it does not) each time I upgrade
the kernel is pretty bad.  Since it impacts the Dom0 it's pretty
significant.
