That looks to be different from the previous bootup:
[ 0.000000] NR_IRQS:4352 nr_irqs:256
?

Lots of logical CPUs, weird that your nr_irqs initially was that much
lower.
Anyhow, you mentioned that you narrowed it down to not being enough IRQs
- how did you find that out? Was there an kernel message when you
started the 155th guest?
Oh, also you say that the /proc/interrupts showed the number descending
from 255 down to 89. With this it should have started at 944 and gone
down to 49? Which roughly means 175 guests?
