List of machines with default_display==NULL on those
architectures:

alpha:
none                 empty machine

mips:
mipssim              MIPS MIPSsim platform
none                 empty machine

ppc*:
bamboo               bamboo
mpc8544ds            mpc8544ds
none                 empty machine
powernv              IBM PowerNV (Non-Virtualized)
ppce500              generic paravirt e500 platform
ref405ep             ref405ep
sam460ex             aCube Sam460ex
taihu                taihu
virtex-ml507         Xilinx Virtex ML507 reference design

x86_64:
isapc                ISA-only PC
none                 empty machine
xenfv                Xen Fully-virtualized PC
xenpv                Xen Para-virtualized PC

Tested on qemu.git master after applying this series.  List
generated by hacking machine_parse(), so some machines may be
missing if they are disabled at build time.
