I do things a bit different than x86: the SWIOTLB stuff is set up in
mem_init(). So I think we should be fine. If there is a down-side to
calling swiotlb_update_mem_attributes() earlier, honestly I'm
not sure.

I've already had some thoughts along these lines and slapped  
-device x-terminal3270,chardev=char_0,devno=fe.0.000a,id=terminal_0 \
on my qemu command line. The ccw device does show up in the guest...

But I would not call it a comprehensive test...

Mimu, do we have something more elaborate with regards to this?
