We have tested the latest xen on VT platform with Intel 915/E8500
chipset. Here is the test summary:

issues:

1). IA32/PAE/IA32E: Guest OS can not reboot normally

2). IA32/PAE: Failed to create more than three VMX domains
simultaneously.

3). IA32/PAE: Failed to create four VMX domains, several of them
complains following messages:
-- "Device 768 (vbd) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not
working"
-- "Device 5632 (vbd) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not
working"
