Yes. The latest working version is c047211.

I got 2 different kind of errors with a guest setup with 2 VCPUs:
	1) Hackbench gets stuck and use 100% of the CPU.
	2) Hackbench heap gets corrupted

For the former, I was thinking about a possible missing SGI.

Sorry I meant I'm able. I spent my afternoon to set up the same
environment as the CI loop.

It looks like the bug is likely the same on the Arndale, even if WFE is
not trap. I will try to bisect on this board.
