For these four, all look fine to me, feel free to take:

Acked-by: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>

Said that, still one comment: maybe we don't need to make the function
qemu_create_machine() to be an user+system API?  Instead we could have
user_ss defines qemu_create_fake_machine() and invoke it iff USER_ONLY, the
same as what patch 3 does.  Then we can drop patch 1, because exporting
system's qemu_create_machine() isn't required, IIUC.

We could add some comment above USER_ONLY's qemu_create_[fake_]machine() on
why the fake machine is created (qdev_realize() of cpu devices relies on
machine object, etc.).  It might still be helpful hint so that we know it
can be dropped if qdev_realize() doesn't need to rely on machine one day.

Thanks,
