I've reproduced your IO hang with 2.0 and both 
9b1786829aefb83f37a8f3135e3ea91c56001b56 and 
a096b3a6732f846ec57dc28b47ee9435aa0609bf applied.

Reverting 9b1786829aefb83f37a8f3135e3ea91c56001b56 indeed fixes the 
problem (but reintroduces block-migration hang). It's seems like qemu 
bug rather than guest problem, as no-kvmclock parameters makes no 
difference. IO just stops, all qemu IO threads die off. Almost like it 
forgets to migrate them:-)

I'm attaching backtrace from guest kernel and qemu and qemu command line.

Going to compile 2.1-rc.
