Understood better now.  I would pass the "Object **child" variable of
object_set_link_property to the callback then (in qom/object.c).

Then I would go for the other solution (the notifier, just adding the
callback to SysbusDeviceClass).  But I still do not understand why you
didn't have exactly the same problem :) unless you were walking the list
to find the relevant VFIOINTp.
