But why do we need to restore Xen mode first and then let dom0
recover its own later if any difference? Xen doesn’t require VGA at
resume actually since it's assigned to dom0 at boot. Dom0's
VGA resume code is like Xen's wakeup stub which runs in real
mode, which is unused now. Do you want to support that then?
Thanks,
Kevin
