I think we went from "we clarified how the ABI works and made
something ABI compataible with qemu" to "let's delete the whole thing
from a released qemu" rather quickly..

To be clear this is still all logically compatible with the v1
interface, and we might, or might not, want to use the ABI compatible
version we already built out of tree to support the existing installed
base of qemu.

Dropping the whole thing seems to only make things worse for this
ecosystem, IMHO.

Which items do you see here?

This qemu patch is linked in the cover letter.
