Ensure references to qemu trees in xen.git's Config.mk are updated.
Check this with
        grep unstable Config.mk 
which should produce no output.  Replace as necessary.
(There may well be none.)

Update newly diverging staging (unstable) according to
release-technician-checklist.txt section re README etc.

Update newly diverging staging-$v according to
release-technician-checklist.txt section re README etc.,
including turning off debug.

Set off a manual osstest run, since the osstest cr-for-branches change
will take a while to take effect:
  ssh osstest.test-lab
  cd branches/for-xen-$v-testing.git
  screen -S $v
  BRANCHES=xen-$v-testing ./cr-for-branches branches -w "./cr-daily-branch --real"
