Also, apart from the fact that save/restore *should* still work with
old-style netfront, there are other legitimate reasons for pages to
disappear from a guest's allocation (e.g., running the balloon driver during
save/restore). It might be worth seeing if you can provoke similar xc_save
errors under balloon load.
