Did you get 'overrun: something' reports from trace-cmd, where something 
!= 0?

If you're not sure, please run the trace again.  Also try adding '-r 10' 
to the command line.

Dan, is there a way to hijack the monitor so we can run some commands on 
it?  Things like 'info registers' and disassembly.

Looks like vcpu 1 is spinning; perhaps that's normal.  If you get hold 
of the monitor, please disassemble around 0xfffff80001575d59.

vcpu 0 is busy writing to vga (can you confirm)? looks like bank 
switching is hitting synchronize_srcu_expedited(), which is known slow.  
Unfortunately that only gets better in 2.6.38.

You can try applying

and see if it helps.
