I was wrong about this. Workaround 'xenstore-write /local/domain/0/vm 
something' works and new device is available in guest domain. There is a 
separate problem with networking I'll report separately.
Now but description is looking like this:

xcp-xapi package does not write dom0 uuid in xenstore upon startup. This 
prevents normal device initialization.
