I tried booting staging branch but results were identical. Following
line repeats endlessly.
(XEN) traps.c:3290: GPF (0000): ffff82d0801c1cce -> ffff82d080252e5c

$ 'addr2line -e xen-syms ffff82d0801c1cce' returns
'xen/xen/arch/x86/xstate.c:387' which again points to
xsave. Also, adding 'xsave=0' makes it boot just fine.
