This is part of the reason for this exercise.  I'd rather introduce KVM 
support first and then look at abstracting things, than vice versa.  A 
number of the hooks in the current QEMUAccel tree are there for the 
wrong reason (to support the out-of-tree IO thread, for instance).

If you just introduce something with various hooks and say, these are 
hooks we'll need, it's not possible to really evaluate whether the hooks 
are needed because nothing in the tree makes use of them.
