Xen 4.6 was released 3 and half years ago. The Arm port mature quite a lot since 
then. So you should at least move to Xen 4.12 if not unstable for a new port.

The RPI 3 is still using the Broadcom interrupt controller. It does
not have virtualization extension provided and not based on the GIC
specification. So porting Xen on the RPI 3 is probably going to be quite 
consequent.

Instead I would recommend to look at the new RPI4. It contains a GIC and the 
port should be easier.
