In that case we have a problem because I don't see any other way we
could fix the issue in a way that is acceptable for xen 4.1.
We could emulate PM capabilities in qemu even for devices that don't
support it or make the presence of _PS0 conditional on the presence of
PM capabilities on the devices. In both cases the fix will miss 4.1.
However there is a simple workaround for it: just disable acpi in the
config file of the VM.
