Commit 5a8a49d7aa says: # if we load from a snapshot, the machine can be in any state. That can # cause troubles if loading an older image which does not carry all state # information the executing QEMU requires. Hardly any device takes care of # this scenario. I think it's also easier to reason about devices if you know that the device before a load was in a known clean state rather than being anything at all. -- PMM
