[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] pc: disable the BOCHS BIOS panic port

[Bernhard Kohl]

We have an OS which writes to port 0x400 when probing for special hardware.
This causes an exit of the VM. With SeaBIOS this port isn't used anyway.

Changes v1 -> v2:
Keep the ports silent. Don't print debug output if DEBUG_BIOS is enabled
which might be confusing.
