Below are two similar panics we've captured thus far with some light testing of 2.6.28 domUs across our Xen cluster. The kernel binary and associated files can be found here:

How frequently does this occur?

Did it just started appearing on 2.6.28, but .27.x is OK? Does it happen often enough that you could practically bisect?

This is new in 2.6.28. So far it's occurring randomly so bisecting isn't an option.

Could you compile the kernel with CONFIG_BUG_VERBOSE enabled so that it at prints some source/line info? The location of the BUG isn't obvious.

I've compiled in CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE and redeployed the kernels. I'll post to our community forums asking for wider testing.

What's your dom0?

3.2.1 (+/- a few changesets), 64 bit hypervisor, with dom0 2.6.18.8 PAE from xenbits at changeset number 622 and the other host's dom0 at 524.
