I pretended to myself for a few weeks that I'd get around to tidying this up in
a remotely meaningful way.  That's clearly not happening so I pushed out the
untidy version with appropriate eats babies messages:

https://github.com/jic23/qemu/commits/ad7280a-hacks

Note there is loads of stuff that isn't implemented as it was developed alongside
this patch series to verify individual patches rather than with the intent of
actually emulating the device.

It's hard coded to 2 a chain of 3 ad7280a devices because that seemed to hit most possible
corner cases.

The top commit has the launch string I'm using.  You'll need a filesystem, but
you can probably use one of the convenient ones debian posts as nocloud cloud
images. 

There is some info on that on people.kernel.org/jic23 as I wrote up how to test
CXL stuff on ARM recently and gave guidance on easy ways to get a filesystem.
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/cloud/sid/daily/20210702-691/debian-sid-nocloud-arm64-daily-20210702-691.qcow2
will probably work and is more recent than the one linked from that blog post. 

Give me a shout if you need more specific guidance than this very very rough guide!

I mentioned this thread in the diversion the rust on linux thread took into
use of QEMU to emulate devices which motivated me to stop being lazy and at least
post this hideous version.  Probably the most useful bit is how to get a working
spi device emulated on the arm virt machine as that is very handy for all manner
of testing.  One day someone might implement a large set of IIO device emulation
and bolt it into a CI...
