My bet would be either missing the timer interrupt, or missing
interrupts generally.

Does your platform set the CNTFRQ register in the firmware or does it
use the device-tree clock-frequency node? If it is the latter then
perhaps Julien's patch "xen/arm: Propagate clock-frequency to DOMU if
present in the DT timer node" (commit 59ccb33c40c in the development
branch) would help? Looks like you are using a slightly older version of
the development branch.
