With cpufreq=none I've been able to run through a windows 2008 installation
and some kernel compiles without problems.  After that I rebooted with
cpufreq=dom0, and within 5 minutes ran into the first oops again:

Removing the entire cpufreq part from my dom0 kernel might help :)
But then again, if that's a problem I would like the hypervisor to detect
and avoid this problem if that's possible.

Summary:
--------
The issue: Xen 4.3.1 and my Linux 3.12 build (with cpufreq) panics (page
requests, GPF, bad page state) usually within a few minutes.
When Xen is booted with cpufreq=none the problem seems to disappear, with
cpufreq=dom0 the problem is still there.
The machine I run this on is a dual opteron 6212 with 64GB ECC RAM on a
Supermicro H8DGi board.

Regards,

Wouter.
