Yes, my host is Windows, I can't change anything about that, and yes it is only 
for testing.

I changed my boot line : [    0.000000] Kernel command line: root=/dev/sda3 
xeno_hal.cpufreq=1200 clocksource=tsc console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200 noapic 
acpi=noirq video=vesafb:mtrr:3,ywrap vga=6

But I didn't find the range or the unit for cpufreq, and maybe I had to prefix 
clocksource with xeno_hal ?

But I noticed this in the log : 

[    1.202694] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000920
[    1.202694] IP: [<c10736fe>] __xirq_end+0x12/0x2e
[    1.202694] *pde = 00000000 
[    1.202694] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP

Can it be because SMP is activated and that virtualbox is enabling only 1 
processor with 1 core ?

What's your host system, Windows? If it's Linux, don't use VBox, use
QEMU/KVM (it's know to host Xenomai x86 without major problems, it's my
primary test platform for years).

What may help if you can't avoid VBox is to provide the host's CPU
frequency statically to Xenomai (xeno_hal.cpufreq=...) and enforce the
tsc as clocksource (clocksource=tsc). Timekeeping may go mad in the
guest, but it's for testing purposes only anyway.
