I don't think I understand that last sentence.

Looks like it may have cryptic meaning of stating that xen_suspend calls syscore_suspend from xen_suspend
So, if these syscore ops gets called during xen_suspend do not do anything. Check if the mode is in xen suspend
and return from there. These syscore_ops are specifically for domU hibernation.
I must admit, I may have overlooked lack of explanation of some implicit details in the original commit msg.

Do you call gnttab_suspend() in pm suspend path?
No, since it does nothing for HVM guests. The unmap_frames is only applicable for PV guests right?

Have you tested this (the whole feature, not just this patch) with PVH
guest BTW? And PVH dom0 for that matter?

No I haven't. The whole series is just tested with hvm/pvhvm guests.
