Re: [libvirt] [BUG] Fix order of disks and controllers

This flag is then used on domain-start to determine the disk, which gets passed ty PyGrub to extract the Kernel and IniRD. Now the order is determined by /domain/devices/disk/target/@dev, which makes chaning the order impossible without also changing the devices names, which are visible to the VM! The Nr. 1 use-case for this is chaning the boot-order after installing from a PV-CDROM to the PV-disk. Since the Xen-PV-case has no BIOS bootable section, using /domain/os/boot/ here does not work. Either that libvirt needs to explicitly support Xens bootable flag (via /domain/devices/disk/boot/@order?), or this patch should be reverted. Comments?
