When linux is running as dom0, Xen doesn't show the physical cpu but a virtual CPU. On some ARM SOC (for instance the exynos 5250), linux registers callbacks for cpuidle and cpufreq. When these callbacks are called, they will modify directly the physical cpu not the virtual one. It can impact the whole board instead of only dom0.
