Works for me. Scott, are you happy with this one too?
Not really, given that it will stay around forever even after something
new is introduced.
If you're going to change the name, why not just change it to
KVM_SET_DEVICE_CONFIG? Can we change the name later if nothing else
changes (so it's still binary compatible)?
We can start to introduce (and fix ARM) with a generic ioctl in the
MPIC patches then.
The ioctl is already generic, except for its name.
