I've seen "zombie" VMs hanging around after passing a device through
as well.  Xen reports that there is an outstanding reference to one of
the domain's pages.  It's fairly short on my to-do list.  I'll send
you an e-mail when I've got it fixed at my end, and you can see if it
fixes it for you as well.

P.S.: FYI, the convention on xen-devel is to reply in-line, not to
top-post. :-)  (Catches me out sometimes too.)
