Yes, I noticed the FIXME:
# FIXME: If T is a user-defined type, the user is responsible
# for making this work, i.e. to make T's condition the
# conjunction of the T-returning commands' conditions. If T
# is a built-in type, this isn't possible: the
# qmp_marshal_output_T() will be generated unconditionally.
Using inline / unused attributes don't invalidate this :)

Yes, this is what I did first, use the code below and add #ifdef'ry,
but the code becomes ugly and harder to maintain because the enums
are used in middle of a QOM interface structure:
include/sysemu/tpm.h-37-struct TPMIfClass {
include/sysemu/tpm.h-38- InterfaceClass parent_class;
include/sysemu/tpm.h-39-
include/sysemu/tpm.h:40: enum TpmModel model;
include/sysemu/tpm.h-41- void (*request_completed)(TPMIf *obj, int ret);
include/sysemu/tpm.h-42- enum TPMVersion (*get_version)(TPMIf *obj);
include/sysemu/tpm.h-43-};
include/sysemu/tpm.h-44-
If you think using inline / unused attributes is not an option for
QAPI, then the #ifdef'ry isn't worth it and I'd prefer use v1 which
doesn't use conditional QAPI suggested by Marc-André.
