Applying this patch and building the kernel fixed the problem for me.
Thank you!

It's been almost two months now since I've been able to boot my Linux

fixed within a couple hours to at most a few days.
Sorry about this. We now have a candidate fix for this, which should be
released soon. Perhaps you would like to test it? Instructions for
rebuilding an official kernel package with extra patches are at

Subject: KVM: x86: disable paravirt mmu reporting
From: Marcelo Tosatti<mtosa...@redhat.com>
commit a68a6a7282373bedba8a2ed751b6384edb983a64 upstream
Disable paravirt MMU capability reporting, so that new (or rebooted)
guests switch to native operation.
Paravirt MMU is a burden to maintain and does not bring significant
advantages compared to shadow anymore.
