QEMU prints an error message and exits when the device enters an invalid
state. Terminating the process is heavy-handed. The guest may still be
able to function even if there is a bug in a virtio guest driver.
Moreover, exiting is a bug in nested virtualization where a nested guest
could DoS other nested guests by killing a pass-through virtio device.
I don't think this configuration is possible today but it is likely in
the future.
If the broken flag is set, do not process virtqueues or write back used
descriptors. The broken flag can be cleared again by resetting the
device.
