Ignore the qdev bit for a moment. Hypercalls could be plausibly
implemented as another I/O space from a processor so the thing to model
off of would be PIO dispatch (cpu_outb and friends).
From a qdev perspective, having a VIO bus makes sense. The details of
which I/O spaces are uses are not as important from a device tree
perspective.
