Ok, then rather than the commit log above, it would be more useful (at
least to me) to state:

  It's recommended that VMStateDescription names are decoupled from QOM
  type names as the latter may freely change without consideration of
  migration compatibility.

Otherwise this appears as a rather arbitrary change.  Thanks,

Alex
