Oh, right, good that we discuss this. My patch dated back before the
kvmclock addition, which IMHO incorrectly bumped the version numbers. I
think the current policy in upstream is that we only increment once per
qemu release, not per bit added.

No, I rather think Glauber's 12 should be downgraded to 11 - unless it
misses the qemu merge windows for 0.12. My extensions definitely target
that release, thus will likely carry 11 in upstream. And we should
really try to avoid diverging again.

Ok, can add such a note at the end.
