[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1.7] pc: get rid of builtin pvpanic for "-M pc-1.5"

[Paolo Bonzini]

This causes two slight backwards-incompatibilities between "-M pc-1.5"
and 1.5's "-M pc":

(1) a fw_cfg file is removed with this patch.  This is only a problem
if migration stops the virtual machine exactly during fw_cfg enumeration.

(2) after migration, a VM created without an explicit "-device pvpanic"
will stop reporting panics to management.

The first problem only occurs if migration is done at a very, very
early point (and I'm not sure it can happen in practice for reasonable-size
VMs, since it will likely take more time to send the RAM to destination,
than it will take for BIOS to scan fw_cfg).

The second problem only occurs if the guest panics _and_ has a guest
driver _and_ management knows to look at the crash event, so it is
mostly theoretical at this point in time.

Thus keep the code simple, and pretend it was never broken.
