I'm rather more interested in getting the IOAPIC working on your
platform than figuring out what's going on with the legacy PIC. Can you
say a bit about the CPU and chipset you're using?
Since it looks like there's a nasty interrupt problem on your system,
it's perhaps not surprising that disabling interrupt coallescing causes
problems. My guess is that you end up doing some nasty spinning iwithin
Xen.
Could you get a serial line on the system to enable you to readout the
Xen s/w performance counters? (hit 'p' to print, 'P' to reset)
