By messing a bit with printk's and debug settings a warn_on in the hypervisor
is being triggered when starting the videograbbing domU:
mapping kernel into physical memory
about to get started...

(XEN) [2010-10-13 13:30:44] SEIK pba_paddr: 4
it's this one:
WARN_ON(msi->table_base != read_pci_mem_bar(bus, slot, func, bir));
I have added some printk's .. and read_pci_mem_bar seems to return a bogus
value .. the pba_addr is used later in the function, but i can't oversee if and
when this could have implications.
This also occurs when disabling the pci_resource_align on the kernel line.
lspci on dom0 shows:

In the same function it seems to trigger
if ( d )
{
/* XXX How to deal with existing mappings? */
}
Which seems to be a bit odd for a freshly booted system with no domU restarts ?
