Also when i boot an domain with dom0 kernel instead domU kernel ?

I'm afraid so. We currently have no interface for unprivileged domains to access PCI space. If we gave a domU unfettered access to PCI space and BIOS tables there would be a big conflict betwene that domain and domain0.
This isn't going to be very hard to fix, but stabilisation and domU interface freezes come first.
