Could it be a reason for rejection ?

Quote:-
In all prior Fedora releases fullyvirtualized Xen guests had to boot via the 
QEMU BIOS. This means booting from a CDROM, harddisk, or Network PXE. 
Paravirtualized guests could always boot directly from a kernel and initrd. 
This allowed for fully automated guest installation since it allowed the tools 
to pass arguments straight into anaconda. KVM fullyvirtualized guests also 
support direct kernel booting. The support for Xen HVM was always there in the 
underlying QEMU device model, however, it was disabled as it conflicted with 
the way Xen boots HVM guests. 
Recently patches were added to upstream Xen to work-around the limitations of 
Xen's HVM boot process, so it is now possible to directly boot fullyvirtualized 
Xen guests from a kernel and initrd, passing boot args.
