I think I'm hitting something similar. I installed a F17 amd64 guest
(3.5 kernel) but before booting entered the GRUB boot menu edit mode.
The guest seemed unresponsive so I switched to the monitor, which also
froze shortly afterwards. The VNC screen ended up being all black.

This vcpu is still executing guest code and I've seen it successfully
dispatching I/O. The problem is it's missing the exit_request...

We're deadlocked in pause_all_vcpus(), waiting for vcpu #0 to pause.
Unfortunately vcpu #0 has ->exit_request=0 although ->stop=1.
Here are the vcpus:
(gdb) p first_cpu
$6 = (struct CPUX86State *) 0x7f8015b49640
(gdb) p first_cpu->next_cpu
$7 = (struct CPUX86State *) 0x7f8015b67450
(gdb) p first_cpu->next_cpu->next_cpu
$8 = (struct CPUX86State *) 0x0
(gdb) p first_cpu->stop
$9 = 1
(gdb) p first_cpu->stopped
$10 = 0
(gdb) p first_cpu->exit_request
$11 = 0
:(
This isn't easy to reproduce. I tried entering the GRUB boot menu
again and there was no deadlock.
