I never stated that you depend on that. We (kvm) don't depend on that
either, but nevertheless, have to live with it. An alternative, of course,
is to heavily patch your qemu tree, providing your own implementation
of this, and everything else. The aim of this patch series is
_exactly_ to provide a
way for us (kvm, xen, etc) to do that in a clean way, without
deviating from upstream,
preferably merging your code back.
