Yes -- in fact, we're using the 3.0.4 kernel for both Dom0 and DomU.
I've some more info from failures last night:

1. I was wrong; it isn't a way early migration; it's a 2nd migration -
it seems that
   the first migration leaves the system in a bad way
2. It is only happening on specific machines - interestingly enough, in
every case, we
   migrate between dual core Xeon and quad core E5310 systems; these
systems have different
   cache hierarchies I think; maybe the CPU hotplug code cant handle a
change in the
   processor type?
