Yeah, if there's something *further* that needs to happen, let me know.
I'm not sure what the QOM ideal is.

Is there a reference implementation for what we consider to be a proper
QOM device that I can measure against?

A list of forbidden ABIs I ought not use?

(S/ATA device realization is in itself already particularly bizarre
where we have a skeleton list of properties in QOM and then we just
malloc the bulk of the structure we actually use, but I think it's not
worth fixing to be nicer because I haven't figured out a way to do it
without breaking backwards compatibility, so I've just left it alone.)
