I tried 2 cases with xen_emul_unplug=never:
- with xen platform disabled (xen_platform_pci=0 plus konrad patch) and 
pci=nomsi
- with xen_platform_pci=1 and without pci kernel parameter
on both cases qemu crash with same error:
xen_ram_addr_from_mapcache, could not find 0x7fdecf624968

On your virtio net test you have added only 'model=virtio-net-pci' on 
vif line of domU's xl cfg or you did other changes?
Thanks for any reply.
