This would also explain why Ian might not have seen it (it went in
late and without O_DIRECT we think this crash can't happen).

When I saw this sort of thing it was with PV guests and blktap. I have
never tried anything like this with an HVM guest so it's not hard to
explain why I've never seen it there ;-).

My knowledge of PV guests is about zero, but I thought they used
xen_disk.c as well. However, as you were testing pre April 2012 I
think, they wouldn't have used O_DIRECT.
