So far, I was only able to verify that the issue has nothing to do with
OVMF and multi-vcpu, it reproduces very well with

$ qemu-kvm -machine q35,accel=kvm,kernel-irqchip=split -name guest=c10s
-cpu host -smp 1 -m 16384 -drive file=/var/lib/libvirt/images/c10s-bios.qcow2,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0
-device ide-hd,bus=ide.0,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0,bootindex=1
-vnc :0 -device VGA -monitor stdio --no-reboot

Comparing traces of working and broken cases, I couldn't find anything
suspicious but I may had missed something of course. For now, it seems
like a userspace misbehavior resulting in a segfault.
