FYI, we've decided that this is almost certainly F12 material. The QEMU
upstream release will be so close to the feature freeze, that we don't
want to risk causing KVM regressions by trying to then merge the two.
Hopefully come F12, more of the KVM bits will be in QEMU mainline, so
work we need todo to merge would be minimal
