Just some additional data without any final conclusion. Talking to Sean,
the affected instance type seem to be all Xen based. The provided
stacktrace backs this. In the past that could have been a mix of
paravirtualized (PV) and hardware virtualized (HVM). But since
spectre/meltdown I expect that to be all HVM guests.

>From the stacktrace the bug occurs early during setup of ACPI. At least
that part has not changed on the 4.4 kernel side. There is one change in
this cycle which changes where internal driver data gets attached to
interrupt controller structures. Though that would be a change which was
applied to all (4.4, 4.15, 5.4) kernels in this cycle.
