This is how it looks, including the arm64 change:

---

arm,arm64/xen: introduce HYPERVISOR_suspend

Introduce HYPERVISOR_suspend: it is a call to sched_op with an
additional argument that is always 0 on arm and arm64.

Introduce a few additional empty stubs for Xen arch specific functions
called by drivers/xen/manage.c.
