[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 04/14] qdev: don't allow globals to be set by bus name

[Anthony Liguori]

This is technically a compatibility breaker.  However:

1) libvirt does not rely on this (it always uses the driver name)

2) This behavior isn't actually documented anywhere (the docs just say driver).

3) I suspect there are less than three people on earth that even know this is
   possible (minus the people reading this message).

So I think we can safely break it :-)
