Hi Andrew, first i try boot xen with cpuid_mask_ext_ecx=fbffffff, restore and 
migration works well, then try apply the patchs 

tools/python: Adjust migration v2 library to warn about...
tools/libxc: Avoid generating inappropriate zero-length...	
tools/libxc: Tolerate zero-length records in migration...

remove cpuid_mask, recompile and install xen-4.7.1, reboot and the problem 
persist. I'm missing something?

Regards
