Other than RIP looking odd for a guest still in non-paged protected
mode I can't seem to spot anything wrong with guest state.
Considering that there was just a single HVM-related commit
between the two releases (which looks completely unrelated) I
wonder whether you're observing a problem that's a side effect
of something else, e.g. a build system change (compiler update or
alike). If that can be ruled out, I guess the only chance would be
for you to bisect for the offending commit.

Are you observing this on more than one kind of system?
