FWIW I'm going to send a pull request for the SPARC adapter cleanups
later today as I'll be AFK for the next week and don't want to hold you up.

I've also rebased my TCX/CG3 "make display updates thread-safe" patches
onto my v2 cleanup patchset and pushed to result to
https://github.com/mcayland/qemu/tree/vga-fixes-sparc so that in my
absence you can cherry-pick the cg3/tcx conversion patches into your
series while I'm away.


ATB,

Mark.
