So who can pick up such patches? We don't have a maintainer for the QDEV
subsystem anymore... should it go via qemu-trivial?

It seems trivial enough to go via qemu-trivial, but it would be good to
have a R-b from someone else than me to confirm.

I would have expected Jason to pick it up, after all it's networking,
but it's okay if you want to take it too.

If Jason pushes it before I do, I will remove it from my queue.
[I have the bad habit to rebase by branch before a pull request]

We've never had a formal qdev maintainer.

"qdev is too important to continue much longer without a maintainer."
Message-ID: <m37h8v85r7.fsf@blackfin.pond.sub.org>
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-06/msg01053.html

The closest we got to appointing one was probably here:
Message-ID: <56B33C2A.8030405@redhat.com>
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-02/msg00949.html

In my opinion, not having a maintainer push or at least direct the cart
is one of the reasons of the relatively sad state of qdev.

Same for QOM, where we had an active maintainer for a while, but no
more.
