AFAICT following
bacbf0cb7349 "build: convert debug to Kconfig"
hypervisor debug enablement is controlled here, rather than in
Config.mk.
The release checklist says that when branching, the new staging should
have debug enabled. It seems to me that I should be changing this
here, therefore.
As additional evidence, I offer
e1d1c68ea8a3 "xen: disable debug
build" which went in between 4.8.0 RC5 and RC6. It does not explain
why this was done but it does STM that reverting that change is right.

config DEBUG
bool "Developer Checks"
- default n
+ default y
---help---
If you say Y here this will enable developer checks such as asserts
and extra printks. This option is intended for development purposes
