Missing mention of the new libxl driver...

but the diffstat shows you picked it up :)

Hmm - SetMaxDowntime and SetMaxSpeed; this looks like we might be
running into scalability issues.  Are there likely to ever be other
migration parameters worth setting on the fly?  If so, is it better to
come up with an all-inclusive API, more like the memory and blkio
parameters have recently done (where you pass in a
string-name/union-value mapping for each parameter of interest through a
single API)?

However, if we think that there won't be too many other migration
parameters to be tweaked, then this looks fine.

Looks reasonable.

Should this list stay sorted?

ACK with those nits addressed.
