Would there be any objections to merging this and the checkstop patch?
We could disable this one before release if it turns out to cause
breakage.
I don't think it needs to rebase, and passes clang build and make check
here. Just messed up the separator on the changelog of the checkstop
patch.
I have been using the v2 series for a while :
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/qemu-ppc/list/?series=361456
without patch 4 and it looked good. Let's take v3 since this patch is
unchanged.
I think there was a newer version that dropped the test for the MSR bit
from the checkstop function and left that at the call site to avoid adding
a one line wrapper later. This version does not seem to be that so
probably the next iteration is better but I was lost following these
series..
