Joerg says I should bisect but I'm busy with other stuff. If people are

so...

Please first try "-M pc-1.7" on the 2.0 QEMU. If it fails, please do bisect
it. A QEMU bisection between one release only usually takes only half an
hour or so for me.

I use

../configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu && make distclean &&
../configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu &&
make -j8 subdir-x86_64-softmmu

Until it's below 50 commits. After that point just "make -j8
subdir-x86_64-softmmu" should do. This ensures that build system changes do
not bite you as you move back and forth in time.

Ok, thanks for the help.

However, as it always happens, right after sending the mail, I triggered
it with the qemu installed on the system too :-( I.e., qemu 1.7.1.

:)

Can you try gathering a trace? (and since those things get huge, you can send it to me offlist) Also try without ept and see what happens.

Also, perhaps you can bisect between Linus's tree and tip?

And finally, what is the host kernel?
