No, but I believe that driver is installed under i86pc so it's not loaded in i86xpv. You can cp the capd* drivers and conf file (if there is one) from /platform/i86pc/kernel/drv/[amd64/] to /platform/i86xpv/kernel/drv/[amd64/], do a bootadm update-archive, devfsadm -i <driver-name>, and I believe it will work fine. The is a bug to move this driver to /kernel/drv, but unfortunately, due to the gate that it's in, it's not trivial.
