[Qemu-devel] [RESENT][PATCH 2/2] x86: Issue reset on triple faults

[Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com>]

As discussed a few times on this list: A triple fault causes a system
reset on x86, and some guests make use of this. To keep the chance of
tracing unexpected resets, log them if CPU_LOG_RESET is set.
