We just added this some weeks ago to our qemu-doc.texi:

"Prior to the 2.10.0 release there was no official policy on how long
features would be deprecated prior to their removal, nor any documented
list of which features were deprecated. Thus any features deprecated
prior to 2.10.0 will be treated as if they were first deprecated in the
2.10.0 release."

Should we maybe wait two more releases (for version 3.0 ;-)) 'till we
remove it?

Anyway, the patch looks fine to me, so:
