(Btw, the db_interception() change in patch 2 seems to be a real fix to me)

I have that in my list, but I don't know it's "sorely" needed. :) It was low
after I knew the fact that we've got one test in kvm-unit-test, but I can for
sure do that earlier.

I am wondering whether we still want a test in selftests if there's a similar
test in kvm-unit-test already.  For this one I guess at least the guest debug
test is still missing.

Thanks,
