Hi,
I was experimenting with 9p last week and thought it was related to that.
But seeing your bug I realize I have seen the same issue:
ubuntu@dradis:~$ virsh start focal-t1 --console
Domain focal-t1 started
Connected to domain focal-t1

Unless someone else here has an immediate idea IMHO this might be better
reported upstream. There are more PPC people and IBM itself reading the
report.
@Björn - would you mind doing so with a mail to [1]?
If you happen to do so updating this bug here with a link to the discussion
would be great.

P.S. similar old bugs with the same signature are [2][3] but those were due
to grub triggering an illegal instruction. I guess we can assume that we
run into an illegal instruction again here, but whyt/details I can't derive
out of the logs.
