I provided some more traces using Ingo's "tip" branch, but I don't think
anyone has looked at them yet.

  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12465#c11

I can provide more traces if e.g. a different set of functions is
required, but I'm not going to be able to analyse them properly myself.

I should have a bit more time for testing next week and I plan to try
setting up the guest with the different virtual network adapters models
to see if that helps.

Cheers,
Kevin.
