Thread-topic: [Xen-users] Domain Crash and Xend can't restart
Seems like something you should put into bugzilla. 

"sleeping function called from ..." is definitely broken code - it means
that someone tried to make the current thread go to sleep when in an a
mode where you can't go to sleep (Not a good idea to sleep the kernel
when interrupts are disabled).
