From: Gonglei <address@hidden>
virtio-$device-{pci, s390, ccw} all duplicate the
qdev properties of their virtio child. This approach does
not work well with string or pointer properties since we
must be careful about leaking or double-freeing them.
Use the QOM alias property to forward property accesses to the
VirtIORNG child. This way no duplication is necessary.
For their child, object_initialize() leaves the object with a refcount of 1.
object_property_add_child() adds its own reference which is dropped
again when the property is deleted.
The upshot of this is that we always have a refcount >= 1. Upon hot
unplug the virtio-$device child is not finalized!
Drop our reference after the child property has been added to the
parent.
Changs since v1:
- add the same handling for virtio-9p-pci device in PATCH 10 and PATCH 11.
- add a wrapper function for better code sharing
in PATCH 12 (Cornelia/Michael/Paolo)
Attention please:
As Michael's comments, the patches will introduce regresion about
"-device FOO,help", which had been fixed by my other patch series:
[PATCH v4 0/5] add description field in ObjectProperty and PropertyInfo struct

Acknowledgements:
I copied Stefan's commit c5d49db message about virtio-blk which
summarized reasons very well, I cannot agree more with him.
Holp Stefan do not mind, thanks!
Thanks for your review!
