From: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@amd.com> This is done to prepare for enabling xenpv support for ARM architecture. On ARM it is possible to have a functioning xenpv machine with only the PV backends and no IOREQ server. If the IOREQ server creation fails, continue to the PV backends initialization.

How long are we supposed to maintain this code? Per [*]: In general XenProject.org supports stable branches for 18 months full support plus 18 months security fixes. When a new X.Y.0 release is made there is usually one more release on the to-be-retired stable branch to mop up any loose patches sitting in the repository at which point the branch is retired. 4.17 was just released. 4.5 was 7 years ago. IIUC EOL'ed 4 years ago.[*] https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Xen_Project_Maintenance_Releases#Stable_Maintenance_Branches
