the patches caused a boot hang with this config:
http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Wed_Jul__9_14_47_04_CEST_2008.bad
i have bisected it down to:
commit e17b58c2e85bc2ad2afc07fb8d898017c2b75ed1
Author: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xxxxxxxx>

xen: implement Xen-specific spinlocks
i.e. applying that patch alone causes the hang. The hang happens in the
ftrace self-test:
initcall utsname_sysctl_init+0x0/0x19 returned 0 after 0 msecs
calling init_sched_switch_trace+0x0/0x4c
Testing tracer sched_switch: PASSED
initcall init_sched_switch_trace+0x0/0x4c returned 0 after 167 msecs
calling init_function_trace+0x0/0x12
Testing tracer ftrace:
[hard hang]
it should have continued like this:
Testing tracer ftrace: PASSED
initcall init_function_trace+0x0/0x12 returned 0 after 198 msecs
calling init_irqsoff_tracer+0x0/0x14
Testing tracer irqsoff: PASSED
initcall init_irqsoff_tracer+0x0/0x14 returned 0 after 3 msecs
calling init_mmio_trace+0x0/0x12
initcall init_mmio_trace+0x0/0x12 returned 0 after 0 msecs
note: ftrace is a user of raw spinlocks. Another speciality of the
config is that it has paravirt enabled (obviously), and that it also has
lock debugging enabled.
