see commit cd5ff8333a3c87 for detailed info.
Short answer is it's not really resolved [*],
-numa node,mem will keep working on newer QEMU but only for old machine types
new machine types will accept only -numa node,memdev.

One can check if "mem=' is supported by using QAPI query-machines
and checking numa-mem-supported field. That field is flipped to false
for 5.0 and later machine types in this patch.


*) I might give another try to removing 'mem' completely in migration
compatible manner but that's well beyond the scope of this series
So far I hasn't been able to convince myself that previous attempts
to do it were absolutely correct for all corner cases that are there.
