SeaBIOS >= 1.11 / QEMU  >= 2.11 no longer requires the 'sga'
device for serial console output from the BIOS. It can be
done directly with graphics=off machine option.

This appears to be live migration compatible, despite
changing the number of option ROMS loaded, though I need a
little more testing to fully confirm this.

Daniel P. Berrangé (4):
 qemu: prevent use of <bios useserial='yes'> on non-x86 arches
 qemu: tweak error message to be more general purpose
 qemu: switch to use -M graphics=off instead of -device sga
 qemu: stop probing for '-device sga' support
