Hi Malcolm,
I tried your patches against staging yesterday and as soon as I started
a guest, it panic. I have lock_profile enabled and applied your patches
against:
6f04de658574833688c3f9eab310e7834d56a9c0 x86: cleanup of early cpuid
handling
(XEN) HVM1 save: CPU

Hi Malcolm,
If you can post the updated patches, that would be great. I think it
would be better for me to test with your update.
Thanks again.

I tested with a non debug version of Xen (because I was analysing the
perf
Per-cpu read-write locks allow for the fast path read case to have low overhead
by only setting/clearing a per-cpu variable for using the read lock.
The per-cpu read fast path also avoids locked compare swap operations which can
be particularly slow on coherent multi-socket systems, particularly if
