Hi,

This short series converts some spapr devices to use the dc->vmsd
interface to register the vmstate. For most of them it was needed
to use qdev_set_legacy_instance_id() to keep compatibility with the
instance_id being used for awhile.

Although no functional changes were made the resulting code is a bit
shorter and maintainable. After these patches there are only 3 places
where vmstate_register() APIs are being used.

No behavior changes were detected when testing migration scenarios with
hotplug/unplug of devices.

  hw/ppc: use qdev to register logical DRC vmstates
  hw/ppc: use qdev to register physical DRC vmstates
  hw/ppc: use qdev to register spapr_iommu tcet vmstate
  hw/ppc: use qdev to register spapr_nvdimm vmsd

Looks good tome.

It looked good to me until, after further testing, I noticed that patch 03
breaks backward migration:

qemu_loadvm_state_section_startfull 560 (spapr_iommu) 0 2
qemu-system-ppc64: Unknown savevm section or instance 'spapr_iommu' 0. Make sure
that your current VM setup matches your saved VM setup, including any hotplugged devices

qemu-system-ppc64: load of migration failed: Invalid argument

I made a follow-up in the instance_id discussion [1] about it. For now patches 1-3 are
compromised. Only patch 04 is worth considering because the spapr_nvdimm device isn't
setting a custom instance_id.
