I have a rough idea of why you need most of these changes, but to just
clarify things, could you show us the following data from a PPC QEMU
guest after you have this patch applied.

 - XML configuration file
 - The QEMU ARGV from /var/log/libvirt/qemu/$GUESTNAME.log
 - The output of

     $ virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp $GUESTNAME 'info qtree'
     $ virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp $GUESTNAME 'info pci'
     $ virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp $GUESTNAME 'info block'

 - The output of $ qemu-kvm -device '?'

Regards,
Daniel
