I have the same problem on totally different hardware. Today one of our Dell PowerEdge R300 servers crashed with the message:

BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 11s! [kvm:5246]

This machine was still using kernel 2.6.24-19.36. I updated it to 2.6.24-19.41 now, but after reading the comments here I guess this will not solve this specific problem.

IMHO this is a huge problem. The Dell R300 is one of the best sold servers in the world. We are just switching from Debian Stable to Ubuntu for better KVM support, and support for newer hardware. This bug is a real show stopper for our migration plans.
