An invalid PSW causes a program interrupt. When an invalid PSW is
introduced in the pgm_new_psw, an interrupt loop occurs as soon as a
program interrupt is caused.

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

Basically patch looks fine to me ... just an idea for an extension (but that could also be done later):

Looking at the is_valid_psw() function in the Linux kernel sources, there are a couple of additional condition that could cause a PGM interrupt loop ... you could maybe check them here, too, e.g. by adding a "extra_params = -append '...'" in the unittests.cfg file to select the indiviual tests via argv[] ?
