Well, behaviour has been changed. I've rebuilt all kernels and
restarted the system. After that all worked fine for some time, and
after a hour or so the whole system (including dom0) has been frozen
again. Network stats:

Heh, and with this patch I've another panic for dom2 (that one with two
xennet interfaces):
