It may be doable for DOM0 kernels, where most devices are shared with
GENERIC (but I suspect it would be a bit messy anyway), but for Xen domU and
INSTALL kernels I'm not sure it's doable. No devices from GENERIC or INSTALL
are relevant for Xen DomU kernels. 

I'd rarther see a file per bus type (ISA, EISA, etc) to be included
in kernel configs that needs them. Then we could have XEN*_DOM0 be derived
from XEN*_DOMU.
