I have some general comments on how you arrange these patches.

At a glance of the title and code you should do them in the order of 1,
4, 3 and 2. Apparently xl depends on libxl, libxl depends on libxc, and
libxc depends on hypervisor. You will break bisection with current
ordering.

And we normally write titles like
  xen: add rt scheduler
  libxl: introduce rt scheduler
  xl: XXXX
  etc.
start with component name and separate with colon.

Last but not least, you need to CC relevant maintainers. You can find
out maintainers with scripts/get_maintainers.pl.
