FWIW I just reproduced this issue but, this time, I didn't see a HYP panic.
The guest stopped at exactly the same point, but I then see a screaming
timer interrupt on the host. The weird part is that the screaming interrupt
is a PPI on physical CPU0, whilst the vcpus are affined to cores 4 and 5
(it's a Juno, so I've pinned the guest to the big cores).

I'll keep digging...
