I was sure hoping to!

Marcelo and Avi both going into vacation have let me down with the
kvmclock patch that you wanted to go through uq/master.

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/141721/

After it didn't make it into Avi's next PULL, I resubmitted it as part
of the qom-user series. That's still on the list. Review and tags
appreciated.

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/144529/

Also on the list is a patch for a new object_class_get_list() function
for sensible -cpu ? handling.

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/143076/

I have been waiting for progress on these prerequisites before posting
huge follow-on batches, but I can spam the list right away...
The remaining issue was how to solve the struct CPU vs. CPU() issue -
my solution on qom-cpu branch is to free the identifier CPUState in a
quite invasive but half-scripted renaming. Based on struct CPUState,
all targets are long successfully converted and keep needing to be
rebased whenever someone moves code to a new microblaze file, adds a
new arm board or in-kernel device using "CPUState", etc.
Since there's a configure change involved in *-user QOM support,
virtually all files get rebuilt on each rebase and that takes quite
some time, so getting that in soonish would be appreciated.
