Please don't change this header, as it is based on its master
located in the Xen repository.
An acceptable solution would be to send a Xen patch first doing the
xen.h changes, and when that patch has been taken to modify the
related Linux header accordingly.
In case you want to go that route, please add a "XEN_" prefix to the
enum members.
