I cannot say whether this applies the same for the vanilla 4.4 stable kernels
but once this had been applied to our 4.4 based kernels, we observed Xen HVM
guests crashing on boot with:

This is from a local server but same stack-trace happens on AWS instances while
initializing ACPI SCI. mp_irqdomain_activate is accessing chip_data expecting
ioapic data there. Oddly enough more recent kernels seem to do the same but not
crashing as HVM guest (neither seen for our 4.15 nor the 5.4).

Maybe someone could make sure the 4.4.y stable series is not also broken.
