[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v8 31/40] qapi: Forbid 'type' in schema

[Eric Blake]

Referring to "type" as both a meta-type (built-in, enum, union,
alternate, or struct) and a specific type (the name that the
schema uses for declaring structs) is confusing.  Finish up the
conversion to using "struct" in qapi schema by removing the hack
in the generator that allowed 'type'.
