Environment:
2 POWER8 with Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS as KVM hypervisor.
1 KVM guest with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Virtual disk for the guest is a qcow2 file on an NFS share, accessible from both hypervisors, so live migration is possible and works for all other guests (SLES, RHEL, Ubunutu 16.04),
Live migratino of Ubuntu 18.04 guest fails on ppc, while the same test on an x86_64 environment suceeds.
