Do you mean that there should be a generic way of doing that, like
sysbus_create_varargs() for qdev, or just add inline functions which
hide qdev property setup?
I still think that FDT should be used in the future. That would
require that the properties can be set up mechanically, and I don't
see how your proposal would help that.
Yeah, I don't think that is a good idea anymore. I think this is part
of why we're having so many problems with qdev.
While (most?) hardware hierarchies can be represented by device tree
syntax, not all valid device trees correspond to interface and/or useful
hardware hierarchies.
We want to have an interface to create large chunks of hardware (like an
i440fx) which then results in a significant portion of a device tree.
