Is it time now to officially remove Dom0 support?

So we do have an prototype implementation of netback but it is waiting
for review of xen-devel to the spec.

And I believe the implementation does utilize some of the dom0
parts of code in DPDK.

Please, do you have URLs/pointers about it? It would be interesting to share
it with DPDK community too.

Joao, would it be possible to include an tarball of the patches? I know
they are no in the right state with the review of the staging
grants API - they are incompatible, but it may help folks to get
a feel for what DPDK APIs you used?

OK, see attached - I should note that its a WIP as Konrad noted, but once the
staging grants work is finished, the code would be improved to have it in better
shape (as well as in feature parity) for a proper RFC [and adhering to the
project coding style].

Excuse my ignorance on Xen.
Is xen-netback for Dom0?
Is the DPDK Dom0 support working and useful?
