the main purpose of CPU::has-stable-cpu-id is to provide means to
reuse current compat logic for devices and keep it localized in CPU device.
It could be done the other way around i.e.
- use -1 to detect not set stable-cpu-id
- add has-stable-cpu-id field to machine or arch specific subclass
(you see it doesn't go away, it just spreads compat logic to machine)
- set has-stable-cpu-id in machine class init depending on version
(on pc it would be pc_i440fx_X_X_machine_options)
- do in machine code:
if (has-stable-cpu-id) {
assign stable-cpu-id
}
I think the original device compat way is a bit more cleaner than above
(not to mention that it follows typical pattern)
