Status in QEMU: Triaged

Bug description:
When I shut down or reboot my Windows XP guest, about half the time, it hangs 
at the point where it says "Windows is shutting down...".  At that point qemu 
is using 100% of one host CPU, about 85% user, 15% system.  (Core 2 Quad 
2.66GHz)

This is the command line I use to start qemu:

qemu-system-x86_64 -hda winxp.img -k en-us -m 2048 -smp 2 -vnc :3100 -usbdevice 
tablet -boot c -enable-kvm &
