Bug description:
  Problem Description
  ====================
  KVM on Ubuntu 16.04.3 throws an error when used
   
  ---uname output---
  Linux bastion-1 4.4.0-89-generic #112-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jul 31 19:37:08 UTC 2017 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux
   
  Machine Type =  8348-21C Habanero 
   
  ---Steps to Reproduce---
   Install 16.04.3

  install KVM like:

  apt-get install libvirt-bin qemu qemu-slof qemu-system qemu-utils

  then exit and log back in so virsh will work without sudo

  then run my spawn script

  $ cat spawn.sh
  #!/bin/bash

  img=$1
  qemu-system-ppc64 \
  -machine pseries,accel=kvm,usb=off -cpu host -m 512 \
  -display none -nographic \
  -net nic -net user \
  -drive "file=$img"

  with a freshly downloaded ubuntu cloud image

  sudo ./spawn.sh xenial-server-cloudimg-ppc64el-disk1.img

  And I get nothing on the output.

  and errors in dmesg

  This was with the latest ubuntu cloud image. I get the same thing when trying to use virt-install with an ISO image. 

  I have no way of loading a KVM on 16.04.3

  == Comment: #2 - Jason M. Furmanek <furmanek@xxxxxxxxxx> - 2017-08-09 17:42:34 ==
  I reinstalled with the HWE kernel (4.10).
  I can install VM and see the console and eveything seems fine.

  == Comment: #3 - Jason M. Furmanek <furmanek@xxxxxxxxxx> - 2017-08-09 17:44:03 ==
  I had another system at 16.04.2 (4.4) and updated that one to the latest and it hit the same issue as above.
  No qemu or libvirt updates were applied. Just kernel updates and a handful of other stuff.

  Seems this issue is specific to the latest kernel

  old version worked:
  Linux fs7 4.4.0-83-generic #106

  new version did not:
  Linux fs7 4.4.0-89-generic #112-Ubuntu

  Looks like 46a704f8409f79fd66567ad3f8a7304830a84293 was backported on 88 but e47057151422a67ce08747176fa21cb3b526a2c9 was not:
