Good stuff overall, but see replies to patches for some nits.

IIRC some powerpc (+sparc?) boards pass a device tree to the guest.  So 
with this (and maybe some more bits) we might be able to dynamically 
generate a device tree from our qdev tree?  Any comments from the 
ppc/sparc folks on this?

cheers,
