Okay.  How about:
- document that pci_addr is optional in hmp
- if no pci_addr assume if=none
- add drive_add to qmp without the pci_addr and if options

We are left with the bus=device0.0 syntax for device_add which is also
gross - user asked for device0, the .0 part is qemu internals exposed to
users.
How about teaching qdev that if there's a single bus under a device,
naming the device itself should be identical?

This will solve the problem neatly without virtio specific hacks,
won't it?
