At this point you already have access to the hypervisor console from
the hypercall page, or alternatively you can use the 0xe9 IO port, IMO
a debug message should be printed instead of just halting. Or else
debugging failures is going to be quite complicated.

I would suggest to convert grub_xen_early_halt into
grub_xen_early_crash and make it a printf like function, or at least
take a string.

Thanks, Roger.
