You can do s/QEMU_CAPS_VIRTIO_SCSI_PCI/QEMU_CAPS_VIRTIO_SCSI/ so that
the bulk of the code looks sane.  The only thing you can't do is rename
s/"virtio-scsi-pci"/"virtio-scsi"/, because that has impacts to XML
which is preserved over libvirtd restarts.  But you CAN do:

s|"virtio-scsi-pci";|& /* the -pci suffix is a back-compat historical
wart */|

and then you don't need a new cap bit.
