My system is also Haswell-E (i7-5820K on an X99 motherboard) and my Win10 VM does not make it past the OVMF spash screen with the symptomatic 100% CPU usage when the host is running linux-lts, but boots flawlessly on linux-vfio-lts. Oddly enough, sometimes the VM seems to be able to boot on linux-lts too, but only once it was successfully booted on the vfio-patched kernel. Could have something to do with some sort of initialisation of the GPU I'm passing through (GTX 970), which is able to survive host reboots. I'm using OVMF from the RPMs linked on the Arch Wiki and updating it regularly. I would really prefer to use linux-lts instead of waiting for the newest linux-vfio-lts to finish compiling each time it gets updated, but that doesn't seem currently possible.
