Hi,

QDEV_PROP_PTR is marked in multiple places as "FIXME/TODO/remove
me". In most cases, it can be easily replaced with QDEV_PROP_LINK when
the pointer points to an Object.

There are a few places where such substitution isn't possible. For
those places, it seems reasonable to use a specific setter method
instead, and keep the user_creatable = false. In other places,
proper usage of qemu_irq is the solution.

The serial code wasn't converted to qdev, which makes it a bit more
archaic to deal with. Let's convert it first, so we can more easily
embed it from other devices, and expose properties.

v2:
 - qom-ify serial
 - embed the serial from sm501, and expose a "chardev" property
 - add "leon3: use qemu_irq framework instead of callback as property"
 - add "sparc: move PIL irq handling to cpu.c"
 - add "cris: improve passing PIC interrupt vector to the CPU"
 - misc comment/todo changes, add r-b tags

Marc-André Lureau (28):
  chardev: generate an internal id when none given
  serial-pci-multi: factor out multi_serial_get_nr_ports
  serial: initial qom-ification
  serial: register vmsd with DeviceClass
  serial: add and set "chardev" property
  serial: make SerialMMState actually a different type
  serial: add and set "regshift" property
  serial: convert irq to qdev gpio properties
  serial: add "baudbase" property
  serial: add "base" property
  serial: realize the serial device
  serial: replace serial_exit_core() with unrealize
  serial: factor out serial_mm_connect
  sm501: embed the serial device
  vmmouse: replace PROP_PTR with PROP_LINK
  lance: replace PROP_PTR with PROP_LINK
  etraxfs: remove PROP_PTR usage
  dp8393x: replace PROP_PTR with PROP_LINK
  leon3: use qemu_irq framework instead of callback as property
  sparc: move PIL irq handling to cpu.c
