Actually, those lines are normal, because vCPUs are created offline.
(see the set_bit(_VPF_down) in vcpu_create()).

The problem is why aren't they coming up. Basically, you're missing a
call to vcpu_wake().

In my (x86 and "dom0full") testbox, this seems to come from
domain_unpause_by_systemcontroller(dom0) called by
xen/arch/x86/setup.c:init_done(), at the very end of __start_xen().

I don't know if domain construction in an ARM dom0less system works
similarly, though. What we want, is someone calling either vcpu_wake()
or vcpu_unpause(), after having cleared _VPF_down from pause_flags.

I am attaching an updated debug patch, with an additional printk when
we reach the point, within the null scheduler, when the vcpu would wake
up (to check whether the problem is that we never reach that point, or
something else).
