We cannot drop capabilities, but you can rename that capability to
X_QEMU_CAPS_PCI_ROMBAR and don't even set that capability.  Check the
src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h, there is a lot of those X_* capabilities.  Even
though you have already ACKs for this series, I would suggest to send a v2 and
use X_QEMU_CAPS_PCI_ROMBAR.
