exit() will call any atexit()/on_exit() handlers, as well as trying
to flush I/O streams. Any of these actions may require further
memory allocations, which will likely fail, or worse cause this
code to re-enter itself if an atexit() handler calls qemu_malloc
Nice, very reasonable.

The only option other than abort(), is to use  _Exit() which
doesn't try to run cleanup handlers.
I will try to send out v2

Could you please explain why calling exit, _Exit or _exit is more
reasonable than calling abort?

abort can create core dumps or start a debugger which is
useful for me and maybe other developers, too.
