Short answer, Yes.
Longuer answer, after the series is applied, there will be a new
platform, "OvmfXen" which will be for both Xen PVH and Xen HVM, but the
OVMF that we know (OvmfPkgX64 that xen.git builds) will still be
capable of running on Xen HVM for a short while and will still use the
ACPI timer.
