we have discussed this verbally with Stefan and think that
there is no need to add that to the machine type as:

- original default was 126, which matches 128 as queue
  length in old machine types
- queue length > 128 is not observed in the field as
  SeaBios has quirk that asserts
- if queue length will be set to something < 128 - linux
  guest will crash

If we really need to preserve original __buggy__ behavior -
we can add boolean property, pls let us know.
