Yes, machine QOM'ification is queued on qom-next and the pull request
containing it is facing some issues still. But you can already rebase
onto git://github.com/afaerber/qemu-cpu.git qom-next branch.

In short, the pseries machine needs to use type_init(), call
type_register_static(), and the TypeInfo needs to specify as .class_data
the QEMUMachine and a .class_init function that assigns that QEMUMachine
pointer to mc->qemu_machine as done in machine.c.
