Wait. So we're saying "let's write an entirely new driver because qemu
has broken emulation somewhere else"? Why not just ask (nicely) the qemu
folks to fix the root cause, upstream?

I had a pretty good exchange with some of their devs in the past - can't
speak for all of them but the team I was working with before seemed very
receptive to accepting changes.

Writing a new device for this (nevermind the concerns kettenis and theo
are also mentioning) seems like the wrong approach.
