The wait stuff for xenbus devices looks like pre-dates distros handling asynchronous devices with suitable initrds etc. I think we need a command line configurable white list of device types to wait for. The default should be (to match what was done historically): PV: vbd, vif, pci, vfb, vkbd. HVM: vbd, vif. I also think it should be possible to default (via a config option) to an empty white list.
