Perhaps so. Even CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM in the kernel is a nonsense, because
it's just automatically set based on (XEN && X86_LOCAL_APIC). And
CONFIG_XEN depends on X86_LOCAL_APIC anyway.

Which is why isn't never mattered that the vector callback handling was
under #ifdef CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM not just CONFIG_XEN.

But don't we want to refrain from providing the legacy PC platform devices?
