I know what that that bug flag is for.

I'm asking whether the xen guest boot sets a flag early - like XENPV,
for example - which can differentiate between baremetal and virt boot in
a fairly generic manner so that we don't set that bug flag then instead
of the set and then clear dance we do currently.
