The body of the while() wants to go on its own line.

And then - why is this Dom0 option handling done only on x86?


As you might have noticed, there isn't any code dealing with the dom0 options
in arch/arm/setup.c, and the arm version of construct_dom0() doesn't take any
command line options as its parameter,
so I have the reason to believe that this feature is not available
under the arm architecture.

Looks like an omission to me - Julien, Stefano?

DOM0 and Xen command line are passed separately through either Device Tree or for UEFI xen configuration file (see -cfg=...).

So I am not sure to understand what would be the benefits to handle DOM0 parameters after -- on Xen command line.
