* [OSSTEST PATCH] Drop Xen 4.5 and earlier

These releases are out of security support.  They are known not to
build on Debian stretch, which is what we are using, and we do not
intend to ever update them to fix that.

Xen 4.6 is also out of security support but we want osstest to be able
to continue to build it so that we can test 4.6->4.7 migration, for
the purposes of testing Xen 4.7, which is still supported right now.

So we have recently applied some build fixes to the 4.6 tree, and for
now we retain 4.6 in osstest so that build fixes applied to
staging-4.6 can propagate to stable-4.6.

These releases are out of security support.  They are known not to
build on Debian stretch, which is what we are using, and we do not
intend to ever update them to fix that.

Xen 4.6 is also out of security support but we want osstest to be able
to continue to build it so that we can test 4.6->4.7 migration, for
the purposes of testing Xen 4.7, which is still supported right now.

So we have recently applied some build fixes to the 4.6 tree, and for
now we retain 4.6 in osstest so that build fixes applied to
staging-4.6 can propagate to stable-4.6.

FWIW This all seems sensible to me.  Thanks for keeping us in the loop.

... aren't the older Linux branches then in similar need of pruning?
Seeing that for 32-bit Arm you can't even build mainline Linux with
the newer compiler, I doubt at least the pretty old ones here have
any chance of building cleanly.
