With the possibility of a powernv qemu hooked up to an openbmc qemu, it
makes me wonder if this is the right direction to take....

I'd prefer extending things where they are now, which leaves us open to
take the qemu platform down two different routes depending on what kind of
session you launch (unless, of course, those two approaches are
represented differently in the device tree coming from qemu, in which
case it may make sense to have two qemu platforms in skiboot).

Thoughts?
