How important are these bug fixes? Eh, probably not important enough. They're not regressions AFAICT - two fairly longstanding bugs, and one bug in a new feature. It can wait until 5.1. But, I guess throw them in if something else does force an rc4.

Yeah, but it's basically harmless -- it's invisible unless you deliberately build with debug, and it would only cause a problem if guest code had a huge long run of slbia insns all in a row, which it won't unless it's being deliberately silly. thanks -- PMM

Applied, thanks (since we needed an rc4 anyway). Please update the changelog at https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/5.0 for any user-visible changes. -- PMM
