[coreboot] Libpayload dies with NMI exception on qemu-q35

[Jonathan Neuschäfer]

Hi,

I just tried to boot coreinfo in qemu-q35, and it got an NMI exception
after a second:

This happens reliably both with and without SeaBIOS and in both
qemu-system-i386 and qemu-system-x86_64 (version 2.5.0).

The coreinfo application code is apparently irrelevant: I replaced
coreinfo's main() with a printf and an endless loop and still get the
same result.

What could be causing this?
