Hi,

we have the same problem with Debian 9 VMs, Debian 8 VMs migration is fine.

After testing with only 1 core, as you suggested, migration works good.

We also upgraded to the latest Debian Kernel, I think it's 4.14.7, with 
this version it seams to migrate stable between amd Opteron and Intel 
Broadwell.

bye

Harald
