[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#866952: xen-system-amd64: Xen 4.8 Install on Stretch Crashes on Boot

Package: xen-system-amd64
Version: 4.8.1-1+deb9u1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

     Initially an attempt was made to upgrade an existing Jessie
     Xen 4.4 system to Stretch Xen 4.8.  When that failed I decided
     to start with a fresh Stretch install.
     
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

     - First, I just replaced 'jessie' with 'stretch' in sources.list
       and ran 'apt-get dist-upgrade'.  The resulting system crashed
       on boot.
     - Second, I installed a new stretch system, updated my puppet
       manifest to support Xen 4.8, ran puppet, and rebooted.  The
       resulting system crashed on boot exactly the same as my first
       attempt.
     - Third, I installed a new stretch system and installed only the
       xen-system-amd64 package.  The resulting system crashed on boot
       exactly the same as my first attempt.
       
   * What was the outcome of this action?

     Here is the output captured from a serial console connection.
