I tried the patch below: on ARM, if I remove -L$DIR/tools/libs/call, the
QEMU configure script detects Xen 4.7 instead of 4.9. If I also remove
-Wl,-rpath-link=$DIR/tools/libs/call, it cannot detect Xen at all.
You are right that we can avoid -I and -l, but I think we need both -L
and -Wl,-rpath-link for tools/libs/call.
