Since it looks like a problem with the blkback kernel thread, it's worth
doing:
echo 1 >/sys/module/blkback/parameters/debug_lvl
That may get some kernel tracing (at level KERN_DEBUG) from that thread
and we can see if it's got into a bad looping state.
After an update and a reboot, and turning off soft lockup detection, I'm
still getting zombie domains. It also appears that after this happens,
no new block devices can be attached.
Here's a summary of the different debug outputs:
(after restarting Xend)
==> /var/log/xend.log <==
[2006-04-05 14:29:09 xend] DEBUG (XendDomain:197) Cannot recreate
information for dying domain 54. Xend will ignore this domain from now on.
[2006-04-05 14:29:09 xend] DEBUG (XendDomain:197) Cannot recreate
information for dying domain 73. Xend will ignore this domain from now on.

^-- these are flooding, but not quite as often.
This leaves Xen/Xend in an unstable condition, I'm thinking the only way
out is a reboot...
