Thanks, but I do not like this change.

IMO make commands should be primarily organised by their logical
function and role in the file.  If that means that multiple targets
have arch-specific parts, so be it.

IMO it is not right to move something from xen-dir to all just to
reduce the number of different targets with arch-specific parts.

Ian.
