Hi I'm facing the following crash now two times in a row while runnign the same
test - so somewhat reproducible it seems:

The system is somewhat stuck afterwards.
I can't get back to libvirt (not restart the service, not spawn a new guest),
nor openvswitch (ovs-vsctl show) all those calls get stuck while other things
somewhat work. But also e.g. a new ssh login is stuck, so debugging after the
crash is very limited.
The order in which the tests do things is like:
1. set up a simple openvswitch
2. start the libvirt network for this OVS instance
3. disable cpus 5-11 (as I want the test to only have 0-4)
4. start a KVM guest on that OVS with huge pages
Note: I reproduced this without step #4, #1 and #2 in the meantime, so we can ignore the VM and OVS that I originally mentioned.
--- details ---
I originally had details about the OVS and the VM here, but to be honest all that is left is "boot and run chcpu -d => crash". So not much details to share.
