3.8.0-rc0 on xen-unstable: RCU Stall during boot as dom0 kernel after IOAPIC

[Sander Eikelenboom]

Hi Konrad,

I just tried to boot a 3.8.0-rc0 kernel (last commit: 7313264b899bbf3988841296265a6e0e8a7b6521) as dom0 on my machine with current xen-unstable.
The boot stalls:

[    0.000000] ACPI: PM-Timer IO Port: 0x808
[    0.000000] ACPI: Local APIC address 0xfee00000
[    0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x01] lapic_id[0x00] enabled)

[   64.598628] INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks:

[   64.598692] sending NMI to all CPUs:

Perhaps an interesting line is the incomplete (no end of range, and it stalls there some time before the kernel reports the stall itself:
[    0.000000] IOAPIC[1]: apic_id 7, version 33, address 0xfec20000, GSI 24-


The exact seem config with 3.7.0 as kernel works fine.
