The commit 2aa925be84293b44ad587ed117184ace61b41dd6 "arm/x86: Use struct
virtual_region to do bug, symbol, and (x86) exception tables lookup."
has introduced virtual_region. The call to initialize those regions is
made in init_traps which is called during each CPU bring up.

This will result to register multiple time the same region and Xen crash
when an address is looked up.

This can be fixed by moving the call to setup_virtual_region directly in
start_xen.

    This is a bug fix for Xen 4.7. Without this change, any use of
    virtual_region (printing a symbol) could lead to a crash in Xen.

Should be "multiple times" in title.

Yes, this needs fixing.

And of course this is all ARM code and you're the maintainer so I'm fine
with this going in:

AAh, and that would explain why I didn't see it when I ran it under
the emulator - I couldn't boot it with more than one CPU (the TIMER bug)!
