qemu: Add patch to avoid qemuppc boot hangs

qemuppc boots are occasionally hanging on the autobuilder. This adds a
patch which fixes the issue in local testing. Its being discussed with
upstream qemu.

I've tracked down what I think is a problem causing qemu-system-ppc
to hang whilst booting images.
I believe the decrementer timer stops receiving interrupts so
tasks in our images hang indefinitely as the timer stopped.
It can be summed up with this line of debug:
ppc_set_irq: 0x55b4e0d562f0 n_IRQ 8 level 1 => pending 00000100req 00000004
It should normally read:
ppc_set_irq: 0x55b4e0d562f0 n_IRQ 8 level 1 => pending 00000100req 00000002
The question is why CPU_INTERRUPT_EXITTB ends up being set when the
lines above this log message clearly sets CPU_INTERRUPT_HARD (via
cpu_interrupt() ).
I note in cpu.h:
/* updates protected by BQL */
uint32_t interrupt_request;
(for struct CPUState)
The ppc code does "cs->interrupt_request |= CPU_INTERRUPT_EXITTB" in 5
places, 3 in excp_helper.c and 2 in helper_regs.h. In all cases,
g_assert(qemu_mutex_iothread_locked()); fails. If I do something like:
if (!qemu_mutex_iothread_locked()) {
qemu_mutex_lock_iothread();
cpu_interrupt(cs, CPU_INTERRUPT_EXITTB);
qemu_mutex_unlock_iothread();
} else {
cpu_interrupt(cs, CPU_INTERRUPT_EXITTB);
}
in these call sites then I can no longer lock qemu up with my test
case.
I suspect the _HARD setting gets overwritten which stops the
decrementer interrupts being delivered.
