    If was thinking of something like this in the header file:


    int xen_must_unplug_nics() {
    #if (defined(CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND) || \
    defined(CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND_MODULE)) && \
    (defined(CONFIG_XEN_PLATFORM_PCI) || \
    defined(CONFIG_XEN_PLATFORM_PCI_MODULE))
    return 1;
    #else
    return 0;
    }

    and then your code would be:

    if (xen_must_unplug_nics()) {
    printk(".. blah blah ");
    xen_emul_unplug |- XEN_unPLIG_ALL_NICS;
    }

    and similar for the IDE disks.

    Please do.
