+0: I like the improvements and I like the general direction, but I don't want 
to commit _yet_ to this solution.

https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/57963/7/vdsm/virt/vmdevices/hostdevice.py
File vdsm/virt/vmdevices/hostdevice.py:

PS7, Line 314:     def __new__(cls, conf, log, **kwargs):
             :         device_params = get_device_params(kwargs['device'])
             :         device = cls._DEVICE_MAPPING[
             :             device_params['capability']](conf, log, **kwargs)
             :         return device
This is a massive improvement over the delegation approach.

I'm a bit concerned about the usage of __new__. I'd like to avoid _too_ 
dynamic/clever code.
Anyway this specific use seems still acceptable.

I'm a fan of this idiom

  @classmethod
  def from_device_params(cls, conf, log, **kwargs):
      device_params = get_device_params(kwargs['device'])
      device = cls._DEVICE_MAPPING[
        device_params['capability']](conf, log, **kwargs)
      return device

but I concur that in this case we have little benefit, beside personal taste.

TL;DR: I don't have any concrete reason against __new__, I'm just asking (not 
requiring) to evaluate possible alternatives.
From my POV the class hierarchy approach could work, I've nothing against it 
either.
