Reasoning would belong here, not below the separator.

I don't believe yet that the patch is the reason, specifically as it
targets the setup phase (except for CPU hotplug, but that's broken for

Also, please attach gdb to the stuck VM and print the backtraces of all
threads ("thread apply all bt").
