RHEL moved to KVM, so I would think Centos did too.
I believe SuSE is the main XEN pusher left.
KVM does support paravirtualization for networking and such as far as
I can tell, or at least something very similar. The FAQ says KVM does
paravirt for drivers but not CPU. CPU requires hardware that supports
virtualization (VT-x for example). This should not be a problem on
modern hardware.
