Yes, this is only needed for backwards-compatibility of incoming
migration data with old versions of QEMU which implemented migration
of devices with hand-rolled code. If a device didn't previously
handle migration at all then it should not now be setting the
legacy instance ID.
Speaking of migration, I notice that this QOM conversion does
not add a vmstate, which usually we do as part of the QOM conversion.
The device is also missing a reset method.
