Hi, My first time using smt=0 on hypervisor command line so not sure how many versions and different pieces of hardware this happens with, but I noticed this during the microcode update stage of boot:
(XEN) HVM: HAP page sizes: 4kB, 2MB, 1GB (XEN) Adding cpu 1 to runqueue 0 (XEN) CPU 1 still not dead... (XEN) CPU 1 still not dead... (XEN) CPU 1 still not dead... (XEN) CPU 1 still not dead...

Boot does continue normally after this point. Is this expected? 4.12.
