I have tested this to some extent with both VMX (Windows XP) and non-VMX

It's good to understand the problem some more, and I think I like your general approach. However, although your current patch drops the domain refcnts, it leaves the tainted-refcnt pages allocated. Worse, they are left allocated and with a dangling domain pointer. Probably we should hit those page refcnts on the head (i.e., to zero). One fly in the ointment is if some refcnts are non-zero because other domains have mappings of them (e.g., device model in domain0)...
