Brief update:
 - Xenomai patches for those two issues are now in my for-upstream
   queue (git.xenomai.org/xenomai-jki).
 - Xenomai's FPU switching collides with the new eager FPU management
   of the kernel.
   This affects only recent Intel CPUs with xsave support and a can be
   avoided by disabling this method for now ("eagerfpu=off" kernel
   parameter). I'm looking into fixing this properly.

Besides this, at least x86-64 works well. I still need to check 32-bit,
though.
