Well, to be fair, 5.3 is a bit ancient. And since then the ACPI code in
2.6.31 handles much more - it might be that you are hitting something new.
I don't remember, but did you try just booting bare-metal with the
pv-ops kernel? No Xen, just pv-ops by itself. Did it boot but without
the serial console?
Also can you try booting the kernel with Xen, with 'initcall_debug' for
your kernel command line? That "Xen: Cannot share IRQ0 with guest" is troubling
me and I want to have an idea what part of the kernel code triggers
this.
