Hi; this device seems to be missing a reset function and
also a vmsd pointer for the migration state. (If there
is in fact no migratable state, then a comment in the
class init function stating that helps to confirm that
it was not an accidental omission. Some day we might
provide some in-code way to say "has no migration state"
and then we could assert that vmsd wasn't accidentally
omitted; but we can't do that today.)

thanks
