Thanks, this worked for me:

    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw' discard='ignore'/>
      <source file='/disk0.raw'/>
      <target dev='xvda' bus='xen'/>
    </disk>
    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw' discard='unmap'/>
      <source file='/disk0.file'/>
      <target dev='xvdb' bus='xen'/>
    </disk>

I will test this approach and resend.
