Thanks for your suggestion, Jesse.
But I'm not yet convinced that it's a intel driver issue.
See my analysis in the xen-dev list.
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-12/msg00855.html

It seems that the PCI hierarchy presented in the HVM does not match the
expectation of intel_detect_pch() function.
The problem is that the PVHVM version also shares the same layout, but the
driver actually works.
That's what confuses me most. So far have no idea how to explain such
difference in behavior.

Thanks,
Timothy
