This allows pc_i440fx-based machines to add new devices such as
VM Generation ID directly to the sysbus.

Only point is, we might have to add more flags like
cannot_instantiate_with_device_add_yet
to a bunch of devices.

Marcel, you did a similar thing for q35, can you
take a look here as well pls?

since vmgenid device doesn't need any external wiring by board
-device probably would also work if it's inherited from plain Device

The change is a must because the new vmgenid device
is a sysbus device and QEMU will not allow it without
marking explicitly that i440fx supports sysbus device.

As you already mentioned, we need to make sure that
all sysbus devices that can be added to the PC machines
are marked with "cannot_instantiate_with_device_add_yet".

Sadly I see no easy way, but going manually over each one...

Thanks,
Marcel

As recommended by Igor, I was able to make the vmgenid work with DeviceClass as parent (i.e. not on sysbus), so this work can be deferred until it’s really needed.  The next patch set (hopefully posted tonight) will drop this patch.
