Maybe not, but where it is we should be using that information.
Absolute minimum we should be using the existing qdev address rather than 
inventing a new one.  Duplicating this logic inside every device seems like a 
bad idea so I suggest identifying ram blocks by a (name, device) pair. For now 
we can allow a NULL device for system memory.
