You may want to put a static mac= directive here, but that shouldn't
prevent it from working.

Rest Looks good. I usually don't specify ip/netmask/gateway in the
config, I just do it in the dom-u.

You don't want to make a bridge xen-br0 inside of the guest, this should
just be eth0.

Just change xen-br0 to eth0 inside of the dom-u.
It goes :
[ internet ] -> -> [ xen-br0 ] -> -> [ eth0-in-domU ]

You should be fine, provided xen-br0 was setup correctly on dom-0. Do
this via ifconfig xen-br0 on dom-0 and ensure it shows the right IP /
etc.
