[Bug 1290743] [NEW] [FFE] Pull Xen-4.4 into Trusty

[Stefan Bader]

Public bug reported:

Normally we would go with Xen-4.3 (as it was in Saucy) for the LTS.
However the 4.4 release (which happened yesterday, Mar-10) is supposed
to improve support for Arm platforms a lot (hypervisor ABI is now
declared stable). Also libvirt/xl integration is supposed to be improved
much and last but not least the number of event channels was raised
substantially which lifts the limitation of concurrent guests a lot.
