To be a bit more precise, it's an issue were a RHEL VM with 4.x kernel
gets stuck after guest reboot, as far as we can tell right after OVMF
initialization. Mira and Stefan were able to reproduce the issue
semi-regularly with a bunch of VMs rebooting periodically. And Stefan
said it didn't yet trigger with the updated edk2 package for a few days
now. We can't be sure, as it is a race after all, but it does sound
promising.
