By default, QEMU will allow devices to be plugged into a bus up to

the bus to plug it in, QEMU will plug it into the first non-full bus
that it finds.
This is fine in most cases, but some machines have multiple buses of
a given type, some of which are dedicated to on-board devices and
some of which have an externally exposed connector for user-pluggable
devices. One example is I2C buses.
Provide a new function qbus_mark_full() so that a machine model can
mark this kind of "internal only" bus as 'full' after it has created
all the devices that should be plugged into that bus. The "find a
non-full bus" algorithm will then skip the internal-only bus when
looking for a place to plug in user-created devices.
