I hit it every time, though with slight variations on which blocks are
affected. I get the problem on two out of three of my machines. I don't supply
any command line options to Xen or the kernel. I do use an initramfs.

So, playing around on a 8gB machine with ballooning memory up (I had initially
set
only 2GB to dom0) and then using the md5sum I was able to trigger this once.
You said you are hitting this everytime right? Do you limit the amount of memory
to the initial domain?
