Hi Cédric,
Yes, this is looking nicer; the macro makes the changes quite small.

Why in qemu_ram_set_idstr and qemu_ram_(un)set_idstr ? It seems an
odd place to put them.

We might want to print a diagnostic there - it shouldn't happen right?

Good, that's all quite neat; we've just got to watch out we don't
accidentally add any RAMBLOCK_FOREACH's back.
