I mean that when the character device is a monitor device, it doesn't
work with a QMP monitor.
For example, I add 2 QMP monitors and change one of the monitor's
backends from socket to a null device.
It doesn't work because it needs the monitor device to support chardev-change.

This command chardev-change needs specific device's change callback function.

No, it doesn't work.

Sorry, I missed it. I will correct it.

I will correct it. Thanks.

OK, I am considering it to avoid duplicated code.
