Why a guest kernel needs to have XFS integrated in the core image? I am
wondering if it is a requirement from another CONFIG_ option.

If it is not a strict requirement from another config, I think we can keep it
as defined at ppc64_defconfig, which defines it as module (CONFIG_XFS_FS=m).

Thanks for this patch, very useful.
