[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/2] qemu-iotests: add _filter_qmp_events() for filtering out QMP events

[Sascha Silbe]

The order of some QMP events may depend on the architecture being
tested. Add support for filtering out QMP events so we can use a
single reference output for all architecture when the test doesn't
care about the events.
