Looking at that commit b2a575a1c652 that you've mentioned, it seems like you could work-around the problem by disabling DMA for the fw_cfg device. Try something like adding the parameter -global fw_cfg.dma_enabled=false to your command line. If that does not help, try to use an older machine type, like "-M pc-i440fx-2.5". Thomas
