I think it is important that we try to limit unneeded access from qemu
to the dom0 filesystem: the fs-backend daemon was needed at boot time
for stubdoms only because of the
stat("/etc/disable-guest-log-throttle").
I am sure we can figure out a better alternative that works for
everyone.
For example we could set a watch on xenstore for that node instead of
just reading it.
