Does the crash happen if you boot the same kernel and initrd directly
without Xen?

Is it possible to get the actual RIP of the instruction that faulted? 
Feeding that to scripts/faddr2line would be just lovely.

The only thing I can suggest for now is to move the reservations from
early_reserve_memory() back to where they were before this commit one by
