Not only DSDT, but also MADE was broken, 
I confirmed that xenpm worked by patching those tables. That's okay.

Is it assumed that the dom0 acpi layer sees real
tables so that it understands all physical cpus?

The assumption isn't true on xen/ia64.
Xen/ia64 modifies MADT to tell dom0 how many vcpu are assigned to dom0.
Please see acpi_update_lsapic() in xen/arch/ia64/xen/dom_fw_dom0.c
Something needs to be done.

thanks,
