Tried that - looks like FreeBSD expects to use MSI for AHCI devices which
does not appear to be supported in q35.

The busses of the q35 ahci controller are named "ide.0" ... "ide.5" (for sata
ports 1..6). Just use these with -device ide-{hd,cd}. Each device needs its
own bus, master/slave doesn't exist with sata.
