The first step here is to collect more information. Things that are or
are not working with Xen setups can be difficult to track down, since it
can be related to any combination of anything like hardware, hypervisor,
dom0, domU etc...

>From your description I guess that changing domU from
linux-image-4.9.0-3-amd64 to linux-image-4.9.0-5-amd64 while all other
things remain the same caused the issue. Is that right?

I see you're using Debian Release: 8.10, which might imply Xen 4.4 and
the jessie kernel for the dom0.

As seen from the dom0, can you please reply with `uname -a`, `xen info`
and `lspci -v` output.

Since the domU is running linux-image-4.9.0-5-amd64 that can only mean
it's the kernel update just done, which is version 4.9.65-3+deb9u2

When reporting kernel versions, note that the package name and the
actual version can be different. So please always include the real
package version, like 4.9.65-3 or whatever in case of
linux-image-4.9.0-4-amd64.

Anything you could do yourself to narrow down the issue would help.

With enough information, someone else might be able to reproduce the
same situation and confirm the issue.
