Treat xenstore UUID for domU's like MAC addresses for virtual network interfaces -- can be set by user in domU configuration, but is generated randomly by default. xm-test results: http://xmtest.dague.org/cgi-bin/display?view=single&testid=1228 [These are for pristine changeset 8627. I see no difference between these and the results for changeset 8627 with this patch applied.] Signed-off-by: Andrew D.
