Hello,

kernels 2.6.35.5 and 2.6.32.22 xen domU panics at the very begining of the
boot process.

I have bisected it to a single commit, and the first bad commit is:
[fb412a178502dc498430723b082a932f797e4763] xen: use percpu interrupts for IPIs 
and VIRQs

kernel v2.6.35.5 with reverted this commit works for me.

Here are the kernel configs I was using:
http://carme.pld-linux.org/~pawelz/kernel-2.6.35.5-domU-config
http://carme.pld-linux.org/~pawelz/kernel-2.6.32.22-domU-config
As you can see they are stripped down configs, intended to run in domU only.

I was testing it with the very simple domU configuration:

kernel  = '/srv/xen/bzImage'
memory  = '128'
vcpus = 2
name    = 'test'
on_poweroff = 'destroy'
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'

Here is the full output of kernel 2.6.35.5:
