I had an off-mailing list conversation with that fellow and I spun out
a bunch of patches to fix his issue.
You need these patches:
Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk (3):
xen-pcifront: Enforce scanning of device functions on initial execution.
xen-pcifront: Claim PCI resources before going live.
xen-pcifront: Don't race with udev when discovering new devices.
I think they are in Jeremy's upstream tree.. ah, right you guys aren't using
Jeremy's tree.
Get them from: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git
pv/pcifront-2.6.34
you also might want to update your pciback driver too (pv/pciback-2.6.32)
