Because they do the same thing.  I'm not going to constantly rehash 
this.  It's been explained multiple times.

If there are implementation issues within the Linux drivers because of 
peculiarities of hvc then hvc needs to be fixed.  It has nothing to do 
with the driver ABI which is what qemu cares about.
