The rationale for doing this is missing. Iirc in past discussions the opinion was voiced (more than once, and iirc by Andrew any maybe others) that a domain in general shouldn't be told about its domain ID. Otherwise I also can't see why we don't have a hypercall for this, and e.g. XTF needs to go through hoops to figure it out. Are those arguments (which I don't recall) not applicable anymore? In the Amazon shim patches thread handing out the domain ID by command line option was suggested as an alternative, which then wouldn't affect other (non-shim) domains, or the client of the shim.
