[Qemu-block] [PATCH v2 2/3] blockdev: Defer creation of implicit PCI devices for IF_VIRTIO drives

[Peter Maydell]

If a user requests an IF_VIRTIO drive on the command line, don't
create the implicit PCI virtio device immediately, but wait until
the rest of the command line has been processed and only create the
device if the drive would otherwise be orphaned. This means that
if the user said drive,id=something,... -device drive=something,..,.
we'll allow the drive to be connected to the user's specified
device rather than stealing it to connect to the implicit virtio
device.

This change does reorder device creation (which will mean a
migration break, and guest visible changes like which PCI
slot implicitly created devices appear in). We can do this
because no machine currently specifies a block_default_type of
IF_VIRTIO except for the S390 machines, and those machines
do not currently support cross-version migration anyway.

Although at first glance it looks like this commit is changing
the behaviour for hotplugged devices, it is not: although
hotplugged devices used to call the code to create an implicit
virtio device, this had no effect because the code in vl.c to
create devices from the devopts list had already run once and
would not be run again.
