Stefan,

Which commit has the race condition comment? I'm aware of a problem with
SUSE's kernel with regard to PV ticketlocks and HYPERVISOR_poll(), but I
don't see any mention in upstream 3.2.x or XenLinux 2.6.18.

Your 10.04 2.6.32-era kernel doesn't have ticketlocks, so the underlying
hypervisor version should not be a factor. But for the sake of argument,
the lockups are observed on Xen hypervisors newer than 3.2.

What are you using for upstream Xen components for 2.6.32? Is it the
SUSE tree?
