The initial pvops functions handling irq flags will only ever be called
before interrupts are being enabled.

So make the __init and switch them to be dummy functions:
- xen_save_fl() can always return 0
- xen_irq_disable() is a nop
- xen_irq_enable() can BUG()

Add some generic paravirt functions for that purpose.

What are you making __init?

"always returning"

Oh, sorry, that's a leftover from a previous version.

Yes.
