Since the introduction of UEFI boot for Xen, the legacy compatible strings were not supported and the stub code was checking only the presence of “multiboot,module” to require the Xen UEFI configuration file or not. The documentation was not updated to specify that behavior. Add a phrase to docs/misc/arm/device-tree/booting.txt to clarify it.
