Hi.
xen 4.0.1 with kernel 2.6.32.36.
I noticed in the last 2 days two kernel panics in the night (and two
reboots thanks to sysctl value kernel.panic)

This is the output I captured from netconsole:

There are 4 pv guest running using tap2:aio backend.
Any hint or workaround to avoid this condition?  And why this happen?
Thanks in advance
