Can you quantify what would be the cost of keeping that code around

I'm not sure I understand your question. Do you mean a number of loc of
the passthrough feature for arm?
I meant that disabling something in Xen will come with a cost. While for
a driver the maintenance is fairly minimal for anything touching core
Xen it will require some more work for any change. So I understand that
it will make Xen slightly smaller (~600 lines), but at what cost?
In other words, I am all for disabling unnecessary driver in Xen with
some caveats (see my other answers). But I am quite worry on the burden
for anything else without any real assessment.
