It'll be either an msk or a wm, I think.  Should not matter to DomU
performance.

However, I'd be interested to see what performance looks like with a
NetBSD dom0 -- when the Linux dom0 code got integrated into the main
Linux kernel tree, it lost some features, like flipping mode, which our
domU driver knows how to use.
