Hi Dave,

older Xen hypervisors didn't have the "max_vcpus" field in struct domain, so 
there is in fact no change for them.

However, thinking about it some more, this might be affected by the increase 
of XEN_HYPER_MAX_VIRT_CPUS. Although I haven't seen a failure, let me check 
first whether a crash session on a dump from Xen 3.3 attempts to read past 
array boundaries.
