Changes:
 xen (4.16.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Update to new upstream version 4.16.1, which also contains security fixes
     for the following issues:
     - Racy interactions between dirty vram tracking and paging log dirty
       hypercalls
       XSA-397 CVE-2022-26356
     - Multiple speculative security issues
       XSA-398 (no CVE yet)
     - race in VT-d domain ID cleanup
       XSA-399 CVE-2022-26357
     - IOMMU: RMRR (VT-d) and unity map (AMD-Vi) handling issues
       XSA-400 CVE-2022-26358 CVE-2022-26359 CVE-2022-26360 CVE-2022-26361
   * Note that the following XSA are not listed, because...
     - XSA-396 has patches for the Linux kernel.
   * Don't ship NEWS in libxen* packages. Instead, only ship relevant NEWS
     items for actual hypervisor and/or utils packages they belong to.
     (Closes: #962267)
   * d/control: make xen-hypervisor-common arch specific, just like
     xen-utils-common.
   * d/control: stop recommending qemu-system-x86 on arm, because qemu is not
     being built with xen support on arm...
   * Add a patch for tools/libs/light/Makefile which prevents build.o and
     build.opic to be rebuilt unneededly during the package install phase,
     causing a FTBFS because it triggers the use of ccache, which is not
     allowed in the install phase of building the Debian packages.
 .
   Improvements related to Qemu integration:  [Michael Tokarev]
   * d/xen-utils-common.xen.init: properly disable qemu monitor/serial/parallel
     devices for qemu started at boot.
   * debian: switch from recommending qemu-system-x86 to qemu-system-xen and
     mention this change in the NEWS file.
   * Add patch "give meaningful error message if qemu device model is
     unavailable" to give a useful error message only in case the domU needs
     the qemu device model which is not installed, instead of giving a warning
     about missing qemu even if it is not used by this domain.
 .
   Documentation, grammar and spelling fixes and improvements:
   * d/control: drop obsolete paragraph about separate xen linux kernel package
   * d/control: Harmonize the capitalization of the 'Xen' word  [Diederik de Haas]
   * d/control: Improve spelling and grammar  [Diederik de Haas]`
