Indeed. The guest hangs because IPIs are not correctly received. The guest 
sees the EQ page as being filled with zeroes and discards the interrupt 
whereas the host, KVM and QEMU, sees the correct entries.

I haven't spotted anything bizarre from guest side. Do we have a 64GB 
frontier somewhere in KVM ? 

Thanks,
