Thanks Matt!  Looks like we need to pass our acpi_id to the Xen hypercall
instead of our cpuid.

Roger, changing the line
        int cpu = PCPU_GET(cpuid);
to
        int cpu = PCPU_GET(acpi_id);
in xentimer_et_start and xentimer_et_stop fixes this panic and gets me
slightly further; the following lines are now added to the console output
prior to the system appearing to hang:

On a cc2.8xlarge EC2 instance, the lines which come after this are

and then the userland boot process; have you made any bug fixes after
your pvhvm_v7 which would explain why tasting disks was hanging?
