...after the --- line, so that 'git am' doesn't make them part of git
history.  Also, I'm not sure that decreasing the serial number is
correct - you've now made it much easier to get duplicate serial numbers
compared to my original complaint of 100000 hotplug cycles.  Now all I
have to do is:

create a guest with two disks
hot unplug disk one
hot plug a new disk

and voila, both disks will now have serial number 2.
