Each HVM guest currently gets a vkbd frontend/backend pair (c/s ebbd2561b4c).
This consumes host resources unnecessarily for guests that have no use for
vkbd. Make this behaviour tunable to allow an administrator to choose. The
commit retains the current behaviour -- HVM guests still get vkdb unless
specified otherwise.

I wonder where you got this file. :p

The correct file name is xl.cfg.5.pod.in.

I reversed the .pod and .5 in 8410fcb54ac808c19a030c6f0ec64e760ac64ca5

This is likely a patch against 4.11 or earlier.

Busted! v1 and v2 were against master. For some reason v3 was a miss in that regard — against stable-4.11.

Thanks for massaging the patch.

Cheers,
Eslam
