Currently, sdr attributes are identified using byte offsets and this
can be a bit confusing.
This patch adds a struct ipmi_sdr_compact conforming to the IPMI specs
and replaces byte offsets with names. It also introduces and uses a
struct ipmi_sdr_header in sections of the code where no assumption is
made on the type of SDR. This leave rooms to potential usage of other
types in the future.

The IPMI BMC simulator populates the SDR table with a set of initial
SDRs. The length of each SDR is taken from the record itself (byte 4)
which does not include the size of the header. But, the full length
(header + data) is required by the sdr_add_entry() routine.

Each routine using the IPMI_ADD_RSP_DATA, IPMI_CHECK_CMD_LEN or
IPMI_CHECK_RESERVATION macros needs to define a goto label 'out' to
handle hidden errors. Using directly a return statement has the same
effect and it removes the fact that 'out' needs to be defined.
The code exits in ipmi_sim_handle_command() are a little different
from the rest and a "possible" error in the macro IPMI_ADD_RSP_DATA is
handled before making use of it. This might be a bit excessive as a
minimum response len is currently 300 bytes and the patch checks that
at least 3 are available.

The mechanism to get the option ROM for virtio-net does not block the
PCI ROM from being loaded. Therefore, in vhost-user-test there are
two entries in the boot menu for the virtio-net card: one as an
embedded option ROM, one from the ROM BAR.
The embedded option ROM in vhost-user-test is the non-EFI-enabled,
while the ROM BAR has an EFI-enabled ROM. The two are compiled with
slightly different parameters, where only the old BIOS-only one doesn't
have a timeout for the "Press Ctrl-B" banner. When using a new
machine type, therefore, the vhost-user-test has to wait for the
EFI-enabled ROM's banner to go away. There are several ways to fix
this:
1) fix the ROMs to have the same configuration
2) add ",romfile=" to the -device line
3) remove --option-rom and add the ROM file name to the -device line
4) use an old machine type
This patch chooses 3. In addition, the file name was wrong because
qtest runs QEMU relative to the top build directory, not to the
x86_64-softmmu/ subdirectory, which is fixed too.

The return code of virtqueue_pop/vring_pop is unused except to check for
errors or 0. We can thus easily move allocation inside the functions
and just return a pointer to the VirtQueueElement.
The advantage is that we will be able to allocate only the space that
is needed for the actual size of the s/g list instead of the full
VIRTQUEUE_MAX_SIZE items. Currently VirtQueueElement takes about 48K
of memory, and this kind of allocation puts a lot of stress on malloc.
By cutting the size by two or three orders of magnitude, malloc can
use much more efficient algorithms.
The patch is pretty large, but changes to each device are testable
more or less independently. Splitting it would mostly add churn.

to extend VirtQueueElement with device-specific fields and, until now,
the place of the VirtQueueElement within the containing struct didn't
matter. When allocating the entire block in virtqueue_pop/vring_pop,
however, the containing struct must basically be a "subclass" of
VirtQueueElement, with the VirtQueueElement as the first field. Make
that the case for blk and scsi; gpu is already doing it.

I misunderstood the vmstate macro definition when I reworked the
virtio .get/.put.
The VMSTATE_STRUCT_VARRAY_KNOWN, was described as being for "a
variable length array (i.e. _type *_field) but we know the
length". However it actually specified operation for arrays embedded in
the struct (i.e. _type _field[]) since it lacked the VMS_POINTER
flag. This caused offset calculation to be completely off, examining and
potentially sending random data instead of the VirtQueue content.
Replace the otherwise unused VMSTATE_STRUCT_VARRAY_KNOWN with a
VMSTATE_STRUCT_VARRAY_POINTER_KNOWN that includes the VMS_POINTER flag
(so now actually doing what it advertises) and use it in the virtio
migration code.

This fixes a regression introduced with commit 3f09bfbc7. Multiple
bugs arise in conjunction with live snapshots and mirroring operations
(which include active layer commit).
After a live snapshot occurs, the active layer and the base layer both
have a non-NULL tqe_prev field in the device_list, although the base
node's tqe_prev field points to a NULL entry. This non-NULL tqe_prev
field occurs after the bdrv_append() in the external snapshot calls
change_parent_backing_link().
In change_parent_backing_link(), when the previous active layer is
removed from device_list, the device_list.tqe_prev pointer is not
set to NULL.
The operating scheme in the block layer is to indicate that a BDS belongs
in the bdrv_states device_list iff the device_list.tqe_prev pointer
is non-NULL.
This patch does two things:
1.) Introduces a new block layer helper bdrv_device_remove() to remove a
BDS from the device_list, and
2.) uses that new API, which also fixes the regression once used in
change_parent_backing_link().
