Did anything happen with this bug later? I see nothing on any public
list, nor any public bug tracker.
We have been having the same sort of problem
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2216496). It's another
of those bugs that requires hundreds or thousands of boot iterations
before you can see it. There is a test in comment 27 but it requires
guestfish and some hacking to work. I'll try to come up with a
cleaner test later.
We see stack traces like:

[ 3.093098] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
There are many variations, but the common pattern seems to be
<something in the clock or timer code> -> int3 exception
It only happens under qemu TCG (software emulation).
It goes away if we recompile qemu without MTTCG support.
It only happens with -smp enabled, we are using qemu -smp 4
We are using qemu-system-x86_64 full system emulation on x86_64 host
(ie. forcing KVM off).
It happens with the latest upstream kernel and qemu, compiled from
source.
I'd love to have a better way to debug this or collect more
diagnostics if you have any suggestions.
Rich.
