Hello,

On a Westmere EX system I tried to boot a 3.10-rc1 kernel in the guest 
and tripped over a panic.
[ 'was only able to capture part of the info. on the guest console... 
Pl. see the JPG file and also the qemu command line below. ]

'am using  qemu  (from qemu.git  1.4.91) that is about a day old. This 
worked fine with 3.9-rc7 kernels in the guest.

I had also tried smaller guests with and without VFIO and huge pages 
etc...and got the same panic.
Is this a known issue [or an operator error on my part] ?

Thanks
Vinod
