Would that statement apply to other hypervisors like KVM, VMware ESX or 
Hyper-V, i.e. are the deficiencies in PCI devices/firmware, IOMMUs, platform 
firmware?  

If the statement is Xen specific, are there specific issues or known sections 
of Xen code that would benefit from a rewrite or redesign inspired by other 
hypervisors?
