5.0.21 107262 enables paravirtualisation on old saved guest => it won't start

Description

Somehow the new test versions (tried 5.0.21-107170 and 5.0.21-107262) decide to enable the paravirtualisation support (Hyper-V) on my old VM (state was saved in 2014). Therefore it won't start with memory write error and "pdm#1: Device 'GIMDev'/0 not found in the saved state" in the log. So I have to manually add <Paravirt provider="None"/> to fix the VM.

I've attached the original VM config. It's Win7 x32 VM on Win7 x64 host.

Oh, forgot to say I can see "Hyper-V" in the v5.0.21 GUI and nothing in v.5.0.20 for this VM.

Thanks for the early report! This would've otherwise made it into 5.0.22 most likely, and that would've been a true problem. Will be fixed with 5.0.21r107291 and later.
