Would you be fine with code motion for Xen 4.9?

The only important question is whether the patch/series is suitable material for 4.9.  By the looks of this series, it most certainly is (and at the end of the day, you have final say on this matter).

Other than that, the modification should conform to the normal guidelines (break different logical changes apart into different patches, don't skimp on style, etc).

What matters (moreso during a stabilisation period) is review-ability of the changes, not the quantity of patches.  I'd have no qualms submitting a 25 patch series for 4.9, if I decided the bugfix was important enough and 25 patches is what it took to do sensibly.
