And nested xen.

CPU: AMD Opteron 2352
Outer configuration: Xen4CentOS 6 xen 4.6.1-2.el6, linux 3.18.25-18.el6.x86_64
Inner configuration: Xen4CentOS 6 xen 4.6.1-2.el6, linux 3.18.25-19.el6.x86_64
Inner xen command line:  cpuinfo loglvl=all guest_loglvl=error dom0_mem=512M,max:512M com1=115200,8n1 console=com1 dom0_max_vcpus=1 dom0_vcpus_pin=true
Inner linux command line: ro root=LABEL=DISK rootflags=barrier=0 swiotlb=32768 console=hvc0

Relevant parts of xl.cfg:
builder = 'hvm'
memory = 2688
vcpus = 1
pae = 1
nx = 1
acpi = 1
viridian = 0
xen_platform_pci = 0
apic = 1
device_model_stubdomain_override = 1
disk = ['file:/var/lib/instance-disks/c6:0,hda,w',
        'file:/var/lib/instance-disks/c6:1,hdb,w',
        'file:/var/lib/instance-disks/c6:2,hdc,w']

This is the error that typically comes up with device_model_stubdomain_override=1:

Out of curiosity, I tried adding libata.dma=0 to the linux command line and after that, the corruption was bad enough I had to start over.

With the normal command line, device_model_stubdomain_override = 0, and nested xen, there are no errors.
After adding libata.dma=0 to the kernel command line, with device_model_stubdomain_override = 0 and nested xen, there are no errors.

xen_platform_pci seems to be ignored with device_model_stubdomain_override=1. So I don't think I can test what happens with the 3.18.25-19.el6.x86_64
kernel, no nested xen, and non-paravirtual block devices.
