Just use "inet manual" instead of "inet static":

auto xenbr0
iface xenbr0 inet manual
        bridge_ports eth0
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_maxwait 0

With "inet manual" the network initialization scripts will just bring
the interface up without assigning an IP address - which is exactly
what you need for this bridge.

Using NAT or ROUTE requires assigning a public IP to dom0 (which then
will be shared with domU when using NAT, or will be used as a gateway
when using ROUTE); only bridge networking can work without IP address
in dom0.
