I did all testing with the the most recent 3.1 Ubuntu's kernel in Dom0 and HVM 
DomU as well.
I am just saying that  CONFIG_XEN_PLATFORM_PCI should be equal "y" as on Fedora 
16 for instance.
Please , see how RH's development  tuned mainstream kernel for Fedora 16. 
That's an excellent sample.
 
You might loose option loading Precise in PVHVM domain, because not every 
customer can rebuild
kernel in Ubuntu style, e.g. reproduce :-
http://blog.avirtualhome.com/2011/10/28/how-to-compile-a-new-ubuntu-11-10-oneiric-kernel/
what I did to load PV-on-HVM. I will  attach  dmesg report for PVHVM domain 
loaded with 3.1 Ubuntu's
kernel having  hard linked xen-platform-pci driver for better understanding 
what i am talking about.
Extract from dmesg report at PVHVM DomU :-

[    0.000000] DMI: Xen HVM domU, BIOS 4.1.2 10/23/2011
[    0.000000] Hypervisor detected: Xen HVM
[    0.000000] Xen version 4.1.
[    0.000000] Xen Platform PCI: I/O protocol version 1
[    0.000000] Netfront and the Xen platform PCI driver have been compiled for 
this kernel: unplug emulated NICs.
[    0.000000] Blkfront and the Xen platform PCI driver have been compiled for 
this kernel: unplug emulated disks.
[    0.000000] You might have to change the root device
[    0.000000] from /dev/hd[a-d] to /dev/xvd[a-d]
[    0.000000] in your root= kernel command line option
