xen_cpuhp_setup() calls mutex_lock() which, when CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES
is defined, ends up calling xen_save_fl(). That routine expects
per_cpu(xen_vcpu, 0) to be already initialized.

Hi Boris,

I have tested it and it fixes the dom0 crash in early boot for me.
Thanks again for investigating and the swift fix !
