That seems odd - wouldn't "smp_x86_platform_ipi"
also need the same treatment [edit: I was looking at 3.0 kernel code] ?

Ah, this is caused by

commit 98ad1cc14a5c4fd658f9d72c6ba5c86dfd3ce0d5

    x86: Call idle notifier after irq_enter()
    

and it missed the xen-case

which means that any kernel v3.3 and newer need this, but earlier do
not.

Thx. Will put in 3.7 tree.
