3.2.99-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Guenter Roeck groeck@chromium.org
This resolves a crash if loaded under qemu + haxm under windows. See https://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg2689835.html for details. Here is a boot log (the log is from chromeos-4.4, but Tao Wu says that the same log is also seen with vanilla v4.4.110-rc1).

The crash part of this problem may be solved with the following patch (thanks to Hugh for the hint). There is still another problem, though - with this patch applied, the qemu session aborts with "VCPU Shutdown request", whatever that means.
