Change the logging not to print separately to stderr because a
checkstop is a guest error (or perhaps a simulated machine error)
rather than a QEMU error. CPU registers are dumped.

Since v1:
- Fix loop exit so it stops on the checkstop-causing instruction, rather than
 after it.

Since v2:
- Rebase on ppc-next.

Is this really based on ppc-next or on my series or another patch from
you? I think the patch from my series that introduces the checksrop
function that this patch is changing is not yet in ppc-next so this may
not apply there.

It is based on ppc-next unless I've done something silly. Is this
the patch you were talking about?

I think you've posted an alternative to the patch moving
checkstop handling to a function and the sc patch which may clash with the
not yet merged parts in my series but i could not follow all these
patches. I'm not sure Daniel could so maybe you could send it as a series
to include all patches you want to add or state what it's based on.

Things are getting a little confusing, but I think what Daniel has
is okay. Were were talking about changing checkstop with my patch,
but no big deal to take yours first, I've reworked things.

Sorry my bad. Yes it's getting confusing to me and missed that Daniel already merged that patch on ppc-next, I thought it was one of the patches not yet merged. So this can go on top then.

There was another change for fixing sc that may clash that I'm not sure if I need to do anything about.
