Hi; I've just noticed what looks like an unintentional
change in this commit. The subject says it's dealing
with "default-disabled options"...

...and so here we've accidentally inverted the default
so we aren't doing the QOM casting checks any more.
Spotted while looking at https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1586
where RedHat downstream found this because they happen to configure
with the option explicitly enabled.
I think we should fix the default back to what it was, but that
seems a bit risky for 8.0 at this point.
