So you are pulling from this tree?

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git

There are several references to "xen_pcpu_index"
http://xen.markmail.org/search/?q=xen_pcpu_index#query:xen_pcpu_index+page:1+mid:vts33haap3utumue+state:results
http://xen.markmail.org/search/?q=xen_pcpu_index#query:xen_pcpu_index+page:1+mid:x6m2gyjm3qtnttsc+state:results
etc.

It seems that it has gone unresolved a few times. I'm not sure if this
a known issue or what type of problem it is. Can you provide more
details about your hardware or any other information that may be
relevant?

You may want to review
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/AskingXenDevelQuestions as there may
be developers that would be able to shed some light on this issue.
Maybe with the information in the other threads you will gain some
insights about the problem.

Thanks,
Todd
