NACK this isn't the correct section (MIPS architecture),

The section you want to update is the "Malta board" one.

Now the 82371 devices are broadly use with X86 machines, so I am a bit
reluctant to this change.

Maybe I am misunderstanding the 'X86 machines PC' entry, but I see you
are the unique maintainer of this entry which status is "Supported:
Someone is actually paid to look after this".
My guess is you are paid to work on _recent_ PC machines and you are
probably receiving too many patches.

I suggest we split this section in "recent PC" vs "outdated PC".
It might be hard to draw a line, but maybe i440FX vs Q35 is a good one.

If you agree to unburden some files you don't find relevant to the
"recent PC" entry,
Hervé and I volunteer for the "outdated PC" one with a "Odd Fixes" status
(has a maintainer but they don't have time to do much other than throw
the odd patch in).

I hope you won't take this suggestion badly, we just offer help :)

Regards,

Phil.

As I said, I don't test mips. As long as isa/piix is not event built
on x86, it doesn't make sense for me to merge patches.

That's not a level of support i440fx needs though, it's used
in production on too many systems.

For things that are actually used with x86 guests,
I think we are good, Marcel recently joined with that.

I'd like to split out pc bits that are not used with x86 guests.
