[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 1/4] monitor: cleanup parsing of cmd name and cmd arguments

[Bandan Das]

There's too much going on in monitor_parse_command().
Split up the arguments parsing bits into a separate function
monitor_parse_arguments(). Let the original function check for
command validity and sub-commands if any and return data (*cmd)
that the newly introduced function can process and return a
QDict. Also, pass a pointer to the cmdline to track current
parser location.
