Rebasing to a moving target is insane.  The qmp patches are committed 
already though, so this isn't a issue ;)

Right now I have some wip patches against current master:

    http://repo.or.cz/w/qemu/kraxel.git/shortlog/refs/heads/qmp  [1]

Not sure whenever I base this on the default series or the other way 
around.  Either way it will be a bit messy.
