It looks like you have introduced a new hypercall called dummy.
I presume from this code that you have filled in a new handler in the
hypercall_table, but have you set the expected number of args in the
hypercall_args_table?
The default number of args is 0, which cases a debug Xen to deliberately
clobber all the registers to 0xdeadbeef
