NOTE: This is a rebase of the kernel for the Xen4CentOS6 project from 
      the 3.4.x LTS tree to the 3.10.x LTS tree.

NOTE: You must run /usr/bin/grub-bootxen.sh to update the file
      /boot/grub/grub.conf (or you must update that file manually)
      to boot the new kernel on a dom0 xen machine.  See for info:
