Ok, in which case you probably want a first patch series doing:

1) New docker container (only - this wants to be taken early and set up
in CI)
2) one-or-more initial build system + head.S infinite loop patch. 
Probably the maintainer patch too.
3) Wiring the build(s) into build.yaml

You'll want to join the https://gitlab.com/xen-project/ and I can set
you up with a place to run the full CI (we have a reasonably custom
setup which the communal runners don't like).  You may also want to hang
out on oftc.org #xendevel  and/or the matrix bridge thereof.

Then a second patch series doing early printk, and adding the smoke test
script and wiring it into test.yaml.
