+The ma:wqnagement app has the option of waiting for GUEST_PANICKED events,
and/or polling for guest-panicked RunState, to learn when the pvpanic
device has fired a panic event.
+When pvpanic device is implemented as a ISA device, it supports IOPORT

+implemented as a SYSBUS device.

ISA Interface

recognize.
Currently, only bit 0 is recognized, setting it indicates a guest panic
has happened.
+SYSBUS Interface
+----------------

+The SYSBUS interface is similar to the ISA interface except that it uses

+[0x9070000, 0x9070001] and currently only the first byte is used.
