Use "xm block-attach", and edit domU config file afterwards (if you
still you file-based domU config) to make it permanent.
Should work great with PV domUs.

There are cases when you have to reboot the domU anyway though, since
the driver installation of a new disk on domU OS could require reboot.
One example is when using Windows + GPLPV.
