I'd note that this only affects guests that have actually negotiated
XICS, so guests using ic-mode=xive are safe.

With this patch, backward migration to QEMU versions >= 9.2 is
broken. Which I can only assume is ok, since the hard break (vmstate
gets rejected) is better than weird post-migration hangs.

If the PPC folks can spot a scenario where migration would provide
reasonable results even without the emulated interrupt controller state
being migrated, then we'll need a compat property for this.

Also, a 9.2 guest cannot move to a more recent QEMU version without a
reboot. If this is an important scenario, then the new QEMU needs to
provide some compatibility knob.

Otherwise:
