In commit 4672cbd7bed88dc6 we suppress this for most legacy boards to prevent breakage of previously working guests, but we didn't suppress it in the 'virt' board, with the rationale "we know that guests won't try to prod devices that we don't describe in the device tree or ACPI tables". This is mostly true, but we've had a report of a Linux guest image that this did break. The problem seems to be that the guest is (incorrectly) configured with a DEBUG_UART_PHYS value that tells it there is a uart at 0x10009000 (which is true for vexpress but not for virt), so in early bootup the kernel probes this bogus address. This is a misconfigured guest, so we don't need to worry about it too much, but we can arrange that guests that ran on QEMU v2.10 (before c79c0a314c43b78) will still run on the "virt-2.10" board model, by suppressing external aborts only for that version and earlier. This seems a reasonable compromise: "virt-2.10" is supposed to behave the same way that "virt" did in the 2.10 release, and making it do that provides a usable workaround for guests with bugs like this.
