JFYI... I am able to boot dom0 in PVH mode, then start PV and PVH guest.
But for HVM guest, during boot I see PF fautls in different places during 
load of acpi-cpufreq module. Very hard to debug since faults come from
different place everytime. I'm now trying to figure what load_module
does thruout.

Strange, not sure why the problem is on PVH dom0 only... anyways,
debugging. The problem is intermittent and sometimes it boots just
fine...
