I think we settled, in v4, for not having this awkward error message
showing itself in this way "only" because of (legitimate!) lack of
hardware support for some of the features?

https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2017-01/msg00604.html

https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2017-01/msg00797.html

Nevertheless, I've had a look at the code, and it looks good to me.
