Hmm with that workaround for 4.15 I get the md bug affects in the guest,
but not the md-clear feature.

$ uname -r; cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/mds; cat /proc/cpuinfo 
| grep -e ^bug -e ^flags | grep md
4.15.0-50-generic
Vulnerable: Clear CPU buffers attempted, no microcode; SMT Host state unknown
bugs            : cpu_meltdown spectre_v1 spectre_v2 spec_store_bypass l1tf mds

Despite the commandline adding the feature
  -cpu kvm64,+ssbd,+md-clear,+pdpe1gb,+pcid

Maybe going down to "kvm64" was too much.
I was looking for a middle ground for a while, but it seems in this combination 
"T3.13/Q2.0/B4.15" I can only get it either hang or being without the md-clear.
