Yeah. git format-patch -s gets confused if commit message has parts
separated with '---' :)

This is KVM's CPU_setup(). I want to call non-KVM CPU_setup afterwards,
i.e. "call parent method". XICS_GET_CLASS will return XICS_KVM class but
not XICS, no?

? Anthony did XICS refactoring recently and that has qdev_init_nofail().


> Where does icp->nr_servers come from?

Via properties in try_create_xics() (hw/ppc/spapr.c).

Why would we want to split?

Whyyyy? Many places keep using "k".
