The full serial console output is at the provided link. I did some tracing 
myself and the problem seems to be happening at the list_add call in 
__balloon_append called from balloon_init in drivers/xen/ballon.c. This is 
with a kernel I built today (at 
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2550132 ) with the 
latest stable-2.6.32.x , the 170.1 kernel was built on Thursday (21st Oct) 
and 170 on 6th October and would have used stable-2.6.32.x at those dates.
