Xen 4.4.

The result of nearly 8 months of development, new features include:

 * FIFO scalable event channel implementation
 * Experimental support for PVH mode for guests
 * Driver domains: block scripts, qdisk, non-Linux driver domains
 * Improved support for SPICE
 * Improved kexec
 * Stable ABI for arm32 and arm64
 * Simpler to add a new ARM platform
 * As always, a number of stability, performance, and security
enhancements "under the hood".

There is now a build of xen-4.4.0 in Rawhide. Also the latest 
build of Fedora's qemu on Rawhide has xen support enabled.
