I think that 23573 introduced a problem similar to the one solved by
23550, that is hvm_domain_use_pirq returns a subtly wrong answer.
In any case it is really easy to reproduce: download a recent upstream
kernel tree (3.0.0 is fine), enable CONFIG_XEN, make sure you have:
CONFIG_XEN=y
CONFIG_PCI_XEN=y
CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_XENBUS_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_PLATFORM_PCI=y
that's all. Try to boot the kernel in an HVM guest and it will hang.
