[Qemu-devel] net devices

[Vasile Catalin-B50542]

I'm looking through the qemu sources and I'm trying to understand how 
net devices work.
What is considered a net_client inside qemu sources?
I'm asking about this because I came upon two functions which (because 
of their name) sound like
they should be doing the same thing. The functions' name are:
1. qemu_new_nic()
2. qemu_new_net_client()
More specifically I'm looking through the virtio-net vhost-net sources.
