For this sort of detailed code-level question you are probably
better off asking on qemu-devel rather than qemu-discuss -- I
know not all the core developers read this mailing list.

Have already posted there as well.

Is there a specific person I can pester :-)

In return, I can volunteer my time to contribute to QEMU development
