Keep in mind its been 5 years since I've done any real heavy kernel
development but... (and boy alot has changed!)

Looking at the stack backtrace, we see multiple traps that occur as a
result of invalid instructions being executed:

[1121923.344484] [<ffffffff8100b053>] do_invalid_op+0x98/0xa1
[1121923.344489] [<ffffffff81264975>] ? intel_idle+0xc6/0x139

and again

1121923.344525] [<ffffffff8100a95b>] invalid_op+0x1b/0x20
[1121923.344531] [<ffffffff81264975>] ? intel_idle+0xc6/0x139

instruction at address c6 in function intel_idle in the AMI is
apparently not known to the physical hardware (or xen..)

I am on PTO until Jan 4 and having just moved pretty busy, but I'll try
to decode the instruction that is invalid (this is simple with gdb and
the vmlinux image using gdb).

Could be incompatibility  between xen on the host and xen in the VM.
