Quoting my reply to a prior similar patch:
savevm and loadvm are HMP only precisely because an exact QMP
equivalent wouldn't be a sane interface, and designing a sane QMP
interface would be work. Things that won't do for QMP include
automatic selection of the block device receiving the VM state, and
synchronous operation.
Building blocks might be a better fit for QMP than a
one-size-fits-all savevm command.
