After patch 6/8, this is always true, so I suppose it would
if that came first, right?
On a related note, are there still remaining Xen users on new
32-bit guest kernels? I understand that one could still run
modern kernels on 32-bit Xen-4.2 (EOL in 2015), and that 64-bit
Xen still supports older 32-bit guest operating systems for
compatibility, but I'm not sure if there is any reason to
legitimately run a 32-bit linux-7.x kernel on a 64-bit Xen
instead of running a better supported 64-bit guest kernel.
