I have attached the serial console output and dmesg output. The
initcall and drm debug stuff is present.
Also, I get something new when I run the test program. It prints out:

You look to have a i915 framebuffer on your box.
I *think* that the i915 is not using KMS and the TTM stuff, so the
patch that Arvind posted would probably not help you.

So, lets boot your kernel with these command line parameters to get more

e-mail thread titled: "Nouveau on dom0". It covers the gamma of things
to troubleshoot this.
This is related and most probably due to the same bit. xf86-video-fbdev works
on bare-metal boot on XenNext with the nouveaufb driver but not on Xen.
Have upgraded whole chain to tip except xen which is 3.4.3rc3

Xorg.log ends with the same message as originally with trying
accelerated nouveau with misleading
XKB: Failed to compile keymap
fbdev.c calls fbdevHWMapVidmem in xorg-server/hw/xfree86/fbdevhw.c
which does a mmap as in silly.c. As far as X is concerned, everything
is fine, but there is obviously a page-fault problem. Will have to setup
debug options and trace :-(
The 'corrupted page table' syndrome is also present in the accelerated
nouveau with AGP cards - so it may be linked to this problem. At least
this problem can be repeated on many platforms :-)
The "corrupt pagetable" comes from the pte having invalid reserved bits
set in it. I think the failure path is this:
The bad bits get set because someone is doing a pfn->mfn conversion on a
page which is already an mfn, and doesn't have a valid pfn->mfn mapping,
and the result of the conversion is either 0xff... or 0x7f... (I forget
right now). But either way, a whole lot of bits get set, but nothing
useful. I'm not quite sure why Xen isn't complaining about this at
set-pte time, but perhaps it looks vaguely valid to it (perhaps it sees
the invalid flags, knows the pte can't be used to access anything, and
allows it to be set?). But this fault is happening because usermode
gets a tlb miss, and the CPU finds a pte with reserved bits set, and
raises the fault.
I'm not sure about the mm/pat.c warning thought. I had a quick look at
that code, but it wasn't obvious to me what's going on there. Something
about handing the IO mapping during a fork(). Not sure if its related
or not.
