I would have thought that hotplug would be useful for Xen ... surely
it is a good thing for the hypervisor to be able to synch with the
guest about the actual resources that are available to it.  That would
allow the guest to make rational scheduling decisions (if it thinks that
it has 4 cpus, but really the hypervisor is only giving it 3 cpus, then
load balancing on the guest will be a farce).
