Is there a short summary of the most recent use cases for this feature and expected interactions with other Xen features (e.g. Panopticon Xen, security controls on information that is visible to guests, e.g. recent discussion on version number hiding). This would impact many subsystems.

Presumably Kconfig could enable/disable this optional feature and all dependencies, and the Xen toolstack would continue to function normally in its absence.
