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

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
http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ch-common-tasks.html#s-common-official.

Subject: KVM: x86: disable paravirt mmu reporting
From: Marcelo Tosattimtosa...@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.

2010-03-26 Thread Kevin Burge
Package: qemu-kvm
Version: 0.12.3+dfsg-4
Severity: normal

I cannot start any of my Debian VMs, since an upgrade of the host Debian's
kernel (or qemu-kvm) several weeks ago.  I'm seeing the same problem as
reported to Ubuntu:  Bug #531823
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/531823  I see kernel oops:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at .. IP:
kvm_leave_lazy_mmu Oops: 0003 [#1] SMP RIP kvm_leave_lazy_mmu.  Last line is
oops backtrace is: Clocksource tsb unstable  Which is what this bug reports.
