We have some ugly include chains - yes, it shouldn't be here forever.
Just like the qemu/log.h situation is pretty unsatisfactory (I wouldve
liked to place log_cpu_state() into qom/cpu.h but it depends in
qemu-common.h and even ignoring that didn't build for all targets
depending on include order inside cpu.h and of cpu.h).
What we need is (a) header(s) that allows use of CPUState type and that
doesn't use CPUArchState or other target-specifics. I believe the
benefits of getting rid of CPUArchState outweigh the choice of qom/cpu.h
here, which has been serving as a dumpbin for some now
CPUState-dependent functions living in exec.c or cpus.c, too, simply
because CPUState is guaranteed to be available there and to separate it
from anything that still needs to be seen through similar to cpu-qom.h
vs. cpu.h. If you have a spontaneous suggestion I'd be all ears.
