This escape hack was removed from Xen mainline months ago -- are you
using some old version?

I would strongly recommend that if you want to try to get Xen onto a
Chromebook that you use the latest Xen mainline along with a suitably

the platform support and hardware compatibility side of things since
that hack existed.
