Sorry for my silly question but I thought it is better to ask.
I was able to compile the Dom0 pv-ops kernel successfully finally.

What I did here was one additional minor thing.
Each time I invoked make I did some thing like
make O=/output/dir modules_install install
so in /output/dir
I have vmlinuz and I see
/output/dir/arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage
which is a symlink to
/output/dir/arch/x86/boot/bzImage
my doubt is which one should I use

/output/dir/arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage
or
/output/dir/vmlinuz
 it is  a 64 bit system without VT but it seems the pv-ops kernel for
Dom0 has compiled successfully.
I tallied from the wiki here
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenParavirtOps
the symbols mentioned
   1. CONFIG_PARAVIRT_GUEST=y
   2. CONFIG_XEN=y

   3. CONFIG_HVC_DRIVER=y and CONFIG_HVC_XEN=y
and
   4. CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND=m
   5. CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND=m

are enabled in .config and the compilation upto this point proceeded
without errors.I am confused only about the last part which one should
I use vmlinuz or bzImage.
