I had a brief look: The guest is apparently polling the uart, IRQ
delivery is disabled. But it also receives no timer ticks. I haven't
checked how it progresses, maybe there is some loop counter used.
What's the origin of this test image? Have you checked it works properly
on real silicon? I do not know how this platform looks like in reality,
how it should behave and should be programmed (by the guest), so I
really can't compare and analyze, sorry.
