Not that I feel too strong about this, but I would reword this last
sentence a bit. In fact, ABI, AFAIK, we don't care. API, someone could
argue that it does actually break it, it's just the case that we don't
think it breaks it in any ways that we should care.

And maybe we should also add a note about the libxl_scheduler enum
being (and needing to continue to do so) consistent with what
xc_sched_id returns, like it's been done in another patch of this
series?

Anyway, that's all up for the tools maintainers to judge... The patch
seems to me to do what was asked during v1 review, so:
