The first patches are cleanups and prepare ground for an extension of
the BMC simulator providing a SDR loader using a file. A simple FRU
support comes next.
The last patches introduce APIs to populate a guest device tree with
the available sensors and to generate events, which is needed by
platforms in some occasions.
I have reviewed all of these, and they look good. I only have one
comment: The naming of the properties probably needs to be
fixed.
"sdr" should be "sdrfile" to be consistent with everything else.
Technically, a "FRU" is a piece of hardware that can be replaced
in the field, "FRU data" is the data describing that FRU, and a "FRU
area" is the memory used to store FRU data. I know this is mixed
up a lot (and I have done so) but some people are picky about this.
With the renaming of sdr (fru is your option):

for all patches.
Oh, and I assume you need to add documentation for the
properties to qemu-options.hx.
