With recent 4.10 kernel the graphics isn't coming up under Xen. First
failure message is:

[   46.656649] i915 0000:00:02.0: swiotlb buffer is full (sz: 1630208 bytes)

Later I see splats like:

I have bisected the commits and found the bug to be introduced in
commit 871dfbd67d4ecbcc83fc9e80a310ca9bf3c44c40 ("drm/i915: Allow
compaction upto SWIOTLB max segment size").

To be able to test this commit with Xen you'll need the attached patch
in order to enable the system to boot or you have to disable loading
of microcode.
