XP doesn't support it.

Memory hotplug device already has _UID, so it doesn't need patching.
This patch just fixes BSOD if QEMU has been started with
hotplug enabled i.e. for example -m 2G,slots=2,maxmem=4G,
and prevents clashing between memory hotplug and
cpu hotplug devices on XP (i.e. XP specific quirk).

I've tested it with XPsp3 and all later version upto WS2012R2.
