The problem we found with pulse was: only the last state change in GPIO
is received by guest VM. In other words, with 0(L)->1(H)->0(L) or
1(H)->0(L)->1(0), PL061 only sees the last state (0 and 1). I guess this
is because QEMU is non-preemptive. The solution is to have the following
steps:
  * qemu_set_irq(gpio_in, 1)
  * yeild to guest VM
  * qemu_set_irq(gpio_in, 0)

Is there any way to do so in QEMU without using timer?
