The problem seems worse to me. See:
Brought up 2 CPUs
<7>CPU0:  online
<7> domain 0: span 3
<7>  groups: 1[128] 2[0]
<7>ERROR groups don't span domain->span
<7>CPU1:  online
<7> domain 0: span 2
<7>ERROR domain->cpu_power not set
<7>  groups: 2[0]
<1>divide error: 0000 [#1]

I added code which dumps cpu_power for each group (in brackets)
and it seems that only for the first group the power is computed
(even for regular non isolated domain).
Also the span for cpu0 should be 1 (it can be fixed by:
  sd->span = cpu_possible_map; => sd->span = cpu_default_map;
at line 4484).
Even then the group list is still bad. I'll dig more into it...
