Recognize the qemu --nodefaults option, which will disable the
following default devices on hppa:
- lsi53c895a SCSI controller,
- artist graphics card,
- LASI 82596 NIC,
- tulip PCI NIC,
- second serial PCI card,
- USB OHCI controller.
Adding this option is very useful to allow manual testing and
debugging of the other possible devices on the command line.

Well, the LASI 82596 hasn't actually been built since 2019, when there
was a typo in the meson conversion and it started to depend on the non-
existent CONFIG_LASI_I82596 option instead of CONFIG_LASI_82596.
But that doesn't really matter because enable_lasi_lan() has been
#defined to zero for hw/hppa/machine.c ever since the LASI support was
first introduced, so nothing ever tries to instantiate one anyway.
True.
I do have code for LASI_82596 in my github repo, but since
it's not working correctly yet, I haven't pushed it yet upstream.
I do plan to work at it when time permits though..
As part of the -nic rework¹ I plan to allow the user to explicitly
specify "lasi_82596" as the model if they want one, or else the default
-nic will be a PCI one as it is at the moment. OK?
Yes, that would be great.
Thanks!
Helge
