Description:

I use qemu-kvm every day with a amd radeon graphic card and a usb 3 pci adapter. Normally it works without kernel panic. After a update to linux 3.9.8-1. I can't use pci-passthrough without kernel panic.

To fix this bug. I rolled back to linux 3.9.4-1-ARCH (64 bit).

The virtual machin has windows 7 x64.

Steps to reproduce:

Do a update to 3.9.8-1.
Launch a virtual machin with kvm and a host pci device dedicated.
Wait 3 second and it do a kernel panic.
This task depends upon

Short update:

Add "vhost_net.experimental_zcopytx=0" to kernel-cmdline to avoid the issue.
