Neither here nor there you said what the baseline is (i.e. what the last kernel was that didn't have that regression).
Can you apply this patches to kernel-xen?
Patches get applied to all kernels, or none of them. Furthermore, in the mail above you (validly) ask whether you problem might be related to those patches - did you meanwhile gain any knowledge that they in fact are? If not, are you expecting us to apply patches "just in case"?

To me this doesn't look like something suitable for backporting, but our networking people would need to decide this anyway.

The equivalent of this applicable to our kernel already is in our master branch.

This patches code that doesn't get built in our kernel. Furthermore this is a backend patch, but the crash you reported is in the frontend. Nevertheless the plan is to have similar code in our kernel, I just didn't get around to do the porting work yet.

The equivalent of this applicable to our kernel again already is in our master branch.

I'm going to avoid that mistake in the first place when porting the patch listed as 3) above. All in all, from what I can tell so far, patches 2-5 are unrelated to your problem.
