dmesg.log for 2.31.4 ( Andy's V7 patch set applied ) under Xen 3.4.1
seems to be clean.

Hmm, that's pretty much impossible unless either of two assumptions
doesn't hold: Processes don't share (leaf) page table pages, and within a
process any (leaf) page table page can be used only in exactly one place.
Unless that's wrong, _pin_lock() guarantees that each lock gets acquired
exactly once.

Since the locks' addresses aren't being printed, it's hard to judge whether
what you got is an indication of a real problem. Otoh, if there was such
a problem, I'd expect quite a few people would already have reported
deadlocks... So, did the machine indeed hang after printing those
messages?

Weird, I can compile both 32 and 64 bit domU and dom0 without any
errors like that, looking at the code I'd expect to hit that error
straight away.

I've CC'ed Jan and attached your patch to this message, he may want to
merge this upstream (or point out that I'm wrong again).
