[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/4] qtest: fix "device_del" out-of-order events

[Peter Xu]

It starts from a "make check" failure on one of my private tree. The
problem is that when we do "device_del" we normally looking for two
things: one response (which is mostly empty), and a REMOVE event.  The
tricky point is the event can either be there before/after the empty
response.  So I added qmp_device_del() to make sure the order does not
matter, then use it where proper.

Since I'm at it, I also added the sister helper qmp_device_add(), it
helps to remove LOCs.

I still don't 100% sure why my private tree can trigger this error,
while the master cannot. Anyway, I think this is something we should
have, no matter what.

Please review.  Thanks.
