Looks plausible.  You probably want to have a createDevice method
which calls DevController.createDevice and then spawns the backend,
but that can come later.

I think this bit is correct.

I think this should work if your SXP includes an entry for the
backend.  Adding something like ``(device (vfb ()))'' to the end of
the (vm) section should work.

``xm create -n'' will convert an ordinary xm configuration file to SXP
format, and ``xm create -C'' can create a domain directly from the
SXP.  Eventually, you'll want to add something to the xm parser which
makes it possible to do this without directly editting the SXP, but
that can wait for a bit.
