Just the one in my minimal test case.

For MP, yes. CPU0 waits until all others are spinning at HIGH_LEVEL
before making the suspend hypercall. This all used to work just fine but
it's been a while since I tested it.

Pretty much as soon as usermode code gets a chance to execute. Sometimes
vbd is part way through initialisation but most of the time its well
before that.
I've minimised things into leaving all my code in a stalled state (eg
set things up but turn off the xen interrupt so no requests are ever
answered) and it still hangs so I'm pretty sure it's not something I'm
doing on resume, so either it's something I'm doing on suspend, or it's
something xen is doing to my memory.
I've also tried doing everything _except_ making the hypercall and that
all works fine (eg xenbus gets shut down and then resumed etc).
The windows debugger doesn't give me anything particularly useful, and
at least one thread ends up executing where no known code is, so I'm
wondering if I'm doing something that is preventing memory from being
restored correctly. I'm trying to build some tests for that now.
