QEMU should detect that and panick the guest, hence add a test for it.

Why is that, after all in LPAR it would just spin, right?

Not sure what the LPAR is doing, but the guest is certainly completely unusable, so a panic event is the right thing to do here for QEMU.

Also, panicK.
How do you assert that the guest doesn't spin forever, is there a timeout?

I agree, it would be good to have a "timeout" set in the unittests.cfg for this test here (some few seconds should be enough).
