Linux PV guests must use the "Xen PV" APIC driver. You need to
investigate why your PV guest is not using this (although I'm surprised
it works at all with the wrong one).
Actually it appears this PV Guest is using the "flat" APIC driver
instead of the Xen APIC driver.
But upon further investigation into why:
arch/x86/xen/Makefile:
obj-$(CONFIG_XEN_DOM0) += apic.o vga.o
It would appear that only dom0 gets to use the Xen APIC driver.
What gives?
Looks like the Makefile is wrong.
Try this:
8<------------------
x86/xen: build "Xen PV" APIC driver for domU as well
A PV domU also needs the Xen PV APIC driver but it was only built for
CONFIG_XEN_DOM0=y.
