+    target/ppc: fix timebase register reset state
+(H)DEC and PURR get reset before icount does, which causes them to
+be
+skewed and not match the init state. This can cause replay to not
+match the recorded trace exactly. For DEC and HDEC this is usually
+not
+noticable since they tend to get programmed before affecting the
+    target machine. PURR has been observed to cause replay bugs when
+    running Linux.
+
+    Fix this by resetting using a time of 0.

+Reverting the patch helps boot the guest.
