So far I know of at least three fixes which should probably

(otherwise you get a different ACPI blob depending on whether
your build system had iasl or not, if I understand correctly)
Are there any others?
Yes. The libvirt team is a bit annoyed that the pci bus naming was
changed for PPC but not all architectures, but without a proper QMP
command to probe which naming scheme is in effect. We thought that the
naming scheme was going to be universally supplied for all arches, not
just PPC.

Is this something that can be quickly fixed (perhaps by reverting the
PPC patch until a more complete solution is ready), and if so, is it
worth doing for 2.0 proper, rather than waiting for 2.0.1?
