Would you need to do the same sequence as cpu_exec_nocache in this case?

    cpu->current_tb = NULL;
    tb_phys_invalidate(tb, -1);
    tb_free(tb);

In this case, perhaps something like this would be better:

I pushed it to an icount branch on my github repository, together with
other patches that introduce CF_USE_ICOUNT instead of touching the
use_icount global variable.  Can you please take a look and, if it
works, incorporate it in your patch series?

Thanks,

Paolo
