So, I've applied this to ppc-for-2.10, because AFAICT it makes some
situations better, and can't make any worse.
However, it bothers me that this is effectively adding two bits to the
TCG XICS state, but isn't putting any TCG logic to handle them
correctly. I'm rather hoping corresponding TCG logic is coming.
I don't believe TCG<->KVM migration works at present, but I don't
think there's a theoretical reason it couldn't, and I'd certainly
prefer not to introduce reasons for it not to work.
