BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789118

== SRU Justification ==
After an upgrade to Bionic, the bug reporter states the 32-bit kernel
does not boot under Xen PV mode.  This bug does not affect 64-bit
kernels and if fixed by mainline commit 6a92b11169a6.

== Fix ==
6a92b11169a6 ("x86/EISA: Don't probe EISA bus for Xen PV guests")

== Regression Potential ==
Low.  This commit only affects x86 kernels.  This commit has also been cc'd to upstream stable, so it has had
additional upstream review.

== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug reporter.
The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
