The aim would be to port everything across -- qemu has too many
half-finished transitions already, and I think that in order to
get acceptance the new device model needs to come with a transition
plan. (I suspect this may involve some of the ancient and unmaintained
platforms getting deleted if nobody steps up to maintain them.)
